Ugh. This spring is the pits. I moved the rest of the squash out to the garden in season starters, but the rest of the summer starts are still hiding in the greenhouse.
Repotted the peppers in the greenhouse, and restarted some ground cherry seeds because ACK they didn’t do well.
Here’s some progress. Nights are still getting below 45 degrees. Ridiculous.
Moved some squash to a bed with season starters
Put some micro greens in a covered thingy to see if they sprout in the greenhouse
Plus new beds and a progress shot (:
I think I have royally failed at growing most seedling this year. I don’t know if it’s bad soil, too many flies, or too much water, or all of that. I took some time to repot everything today to address those things- but it might be moot. Squash and okra look good, though. I have some of those in the greenhouse now.
Here are some more progress shots
Started okra and squash seeds, and replanted bell peppers that haven’t come up. Moved the other seedlings off of heat.
I’m very excited to use the new greenhouse!!
Added some more pepper seeds the next day
Beans are gone, I’ll pull them out soon. Fava are coming up and there are a few pea flowers ? little harvest of winter squash and carrots and tomatillos today. Planted garlic.
We went away a couple of days which I thought was fine because “everything is done “
Not quite…
The remaining tomatoes are spotted, so they areare definitely done. The runner beans were not drying on the vine, so I pulled them and will dry and shell inside.
Good haul today- tomatoes are still looking ok- we might have some cool weather coming up, so I’ll keep an eye on them. (I’m pulling the tomatoes early to ripen inside, anything orange).
The jalapeños never got very big, but they look plump and healthy. I’ll need to remember to pull them before a cold snap.
Look at this enormous marigold! It’s from whatever seeds I sprinkled last year at the base of the rocks.
Squash are getting powdery mildew. Happens every year. Delicata look established, which is good. Prolly have another week or so of summer squash.
The okra is still going!
Peas, kale, and favas are getting started.
Looks like it’s almost grape time- we’re going to make jelly this year.
More okra! This is BY FAR my best year.
