Beans, kale

It’s been coolish, but Soil temps are over 60, and we have some warm weather coming up. Planted green beans, wax beans, and some marigolds in west e. I put seeds I saved from last year on the corner nearest the neighbors house to see if they grow as well as the purchased ones.

Planted runner beans and Romano beans and nasturtium in south d- where the broad bean favas failed to over winter. I guess I’ll try them again next year? The “cover crop” favas look great, so maybe I’ll have some small beans again. All new beans went under robin baskets.

Added a few more peas to the pea bed, and put kale seeds around the outside.

Transplanted the last couple of late planted peppers, and up potted two tomato sprouts and moved them to the greenhouse, where everything is looking good on a seed mat on the ground.

Also harvested some mojito!

Yeah, so things are crazy.

It’s been a rough few weeks. P’s been working from home, and everything has shut down due to The virus. It feels equal parts apocalyptic and confusing. It is a VERY good thing that it’s happening in spring, and there has been enough sunshine to bask in,

Cooper passed away last week after fading quickly from the cancer’s return. It’s just us at home with Stevie. We only go out for necessities- most places are closed for the foreseeable future.

Anyways, I weeded and moved some stuff around today- lambs ear, catnip, grasses, lavender, etc. I put the “extra” seed starts in the greenhouse so I have room to transplants the other big ones this week. It’s still colder than I’d like – next week has highs in upper 40’s.

Asparagus is poking through, and some peas are sprouting. Spinach and corn salad are doing nothing.
