Greetings from middle Tennessee. It’s cold here. Spitting snow periodically. Forecasting maybe an inch tonight. That is a big deal for these parts. Kids, teachers and parents are pissed that they will miss out on a snow day due to it being the weekend.
Broccoli, cauliflower and kale seedlings are an inch up. Spent an hour and a half whacking down our pampas grass specimen in the front yard last Sunday. Good heavens. Every year that thing gets larger and larger. Friend wanted some cuttings. Had to take a pick axe to the thing to divide off a piece. Whew.
Just a few more weeks until rosé pruning time. Wanting to grow a lot of vining fruits and veggies this year. I just need more garden space to make this happen. Sigh. Prolly should just till up the front yard. Lol

Well, there have been problems in some places, when people dared to put in veggie gardens in their front yards, but there are plenty of edible flowers. LOL.

Maybe consider trellis or fences for your vining plants. This way they go verical and take up less space?
