Ranch,which ones do you start in your green house?
Ranch are the peas from the green house or seed? Hopefully I can plant the potatoes in the next few days.It was drizzling yesterday so I planted the potatoes this morning, then fertilized them (13-13-13) ahead of the forecast cool front. perfect timing too as there's no moon, LOL!!! All the root crops are now in.
Another week or so, & I'll plant the peas.
Here's the monthly update:
We've been pretty busy here... I still have to finish the mulching, but the main part of the garden is complete & both the cantaloupe & watermelon are now up. I need to replant more radish as we have eaten the first planting.
The cilantro is just starting to take off.
The green beans are doing well & have started climbing the trellis.
Both the green peppers & the jalapenos are behind in their normal growth due to the cooler temps this spring.On the plus side, the marigolds are doing great.
The leeks are really putting on. We've never grown them before but after sampling 4 of them with a steak dinner earlier this week, we will definitely plant them again.
The onions were looking good a week ago, but now they're starting to look like they are close to finishing... No 'lunkers' this year I'm sorry to say.
Both the Lima beans & the soybeans suffered a setback about 2 weeks ago due to couple of cold fronts accompanied by 30 MPH winds (their leaves all had windburn).
The potatoes appear to be doing well... The tops are full & bug free so I'm hopeful that the tubers will be good as well.
