“Carrots are coming up and getting transferred from the egg carton to the cold frame. Same with broccoli. Everything is on track.”

I have baby carrots planted in a grow bag. Since they are baby size, I think the potting soil is deep enough for the carrots to grow. I have a mental problem with how much/deep potting soil something takes to grow and produce.

There is a grow bag that has plants growing and I don't remember what I put in there. That was the frantic day of potting soil bags on the living room floor and filling all the pots and bags. I am fairly sure those plants are turnips (maybe) and if so, the soil is not deep enough for them to grow. It's obvious to me now, but maybe that day I was anxious to finish and screwed up, again.

I've had enough rain that the plant soil needs to dry out some. Still have 30% chance of rain most days this week.

I wonder how many sweet potatoes are in the 10 gallon grow bag? The leaves are just growing everywhere, the vines keep getting longer and have fairly large leaves. I know to collect the sweet potatoes when the leaves/vines die - read that about sweet potatoes. Since I still don't believe plants make food, maybe there are NO sweet potatoes in that soil.

Another walking onion was up this morning, so that is 11 of them up. No, I don't remember how many I planted except I did manage to space them about the same so I think this last one fits what I remember planting.

I'm not doing a good job at all keeping up with the plants. I will think, “I'll remember when I did this”, then I don't. greeneyes asked how long the Mortgage Lifter tomatoes have been in the soil, AND I DON'T REMEMBER WHEN I PLANTED THEM. I must start a notebook like you told me to do. I have note pads but no notebook at this moment. I'll get one next time I go to a store and do it right.
