“Really... 35 days from seedlings to harvest?”

Not really, they are spring harvest vegetables. And it wasn’t 35 days, they were in the ground longer.

I checked the Burpee seed catalog and found you could plant seeds in March and harvest in June. They planting seedlings, not seeds.

I didn’t believe it either until I checked. Some can be harvested from seeds in as little as 45 days. Seedlings already have a couple of weeks already.

And you can bet they were taken care of by the WH gardeners while the Zeroes were shopping in London and Paris.

Actually they forced the WH chefs to weed the garden. There was a story about it a week or 2 ago. One chef was from Chicago and the other one was the pastry chef.
