.... finds the asparagus in full tilt. We have been blessed with a number of great meals. Dodging the frost is certainly a task and the small loss to the ice is still ok. It will be a long season this year. Need to fertilize the beds good when we get done.
.... has the broccoli and kohlrabi almost 6" tall. We've covered them 3 times to miss the killing frosts. The roots are set well and with the warm weather predicted for this week should see quite a growth spurt.
.... has delivered the first radish. Crisp, a little bite but something that our ground has grown and a trip to the supermarket is not required.
.... signals the beginning of cutting of the lettuce and spinach from the early planted beds. The mixed seeding is growing quickly and should be ready to cut by the end of the week. The romaine and butter head are shooting right up.
..... saw onions in the ground already a week. The planting went well and we should see a great response from the rain that is predicted tonight.
..... delivers sugar snap peas that are already almost 9" tall. I should have put up the trellis fence today, but I will get in installed either Monday or Tuesday night after work.
Let the season begin!!!!!
Be safe.
Bill
