I’ve been potting up seeds this week - tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, etc. Potted up the last (ok, only ones that produced) of the garden tomatoes’ seeds a month ago so those are 6-8”. Sowed Chinese celery last year but they didn’t come up so am potting them this year. Silly me, only had one tomatillo plant last year and they need friends. Couldn’t find any local seeds so bought a couple fruits at the grocery for seeds. This year, they’ll have friends.
The flats are in the cats’ sunny window so, of course, they trampled through it all this morning.
Temps are in the 50s and 60s so the only things in the garden are collards and mustard greens. The ginger has been dug and in the freezer. Yum, ginger/lemon/honey tea! And I should pick some more pecans but shelling the little buggers is time consuming.
Do you ever plant by phases of the moon? Lunar gardening. I’m trying it this year. But that will be a while yet as we’re still in the 20’s and 30’s here.
I wonder if any of the gardeners here are lunar gardeners. If so, I wish they’d identify themselves so we could chat and compare experiences and notes.
I love pecans, but they are difficult in the Missouri climate. So far the native walnut trees are the only nuts we have had any luck with.
