I cut back on the squash. Did about half what I had last year and some of it is yellow squash which I usually have terrible luck with for some reason.

My bare root strawberries look like they’re going to make it so far. I’m trying to sprout some okra and I saved some tomatillo seeds when I made salsa the other day. After they dried I planted them. Fingers crossed.

I broke a little piece off a mater so I dipped it in rooting powder and planted it and I might try and do that with some
grape cuttings. I also want to start a fig tree but I think it’s the wrong time of year.

I buy living lettuce from the 99 cent store and when I use it I’ve been saving the core and planting it. I’ve got about 4 of them and they’re doing good so far. I stuck green onion roots in the dirt too and they’re doing okay.

Also, bought some living cilantro and parked it in the raised bed after I made salsa. It’s growing nicely but the living dill and cress didn’t make it.

I’ve got to start doing that with store-bought Romaine, though I have a bumper crop of salad greens so far this season.
