Yes, I think I am a big fan of using a fan to strengthen the stems of seedlings. I actually think it worked...my seedlings are doing great! Looking forward to getting them into the ground.
QUESTION: Do you think that this last weekend was the LAST FROST! Fishing in the snow was a bit frustrating...and waiting for the never ending winter to end is frustrating as well. Will it ever be spring, consistently?
UPDATE: Sugar snap peas are looking wonderful...approx. 30 plants - saved from the frost last night - starting to cling to the trellis's - excited about the amount of peas we will have sometime in June, I think....yea!
Little disappointed in the beet rows - don't know where all the seeds went that I planted - no matter - I need to get better at planting in segments anyway - I'll add some more seeds for a scattered harvest of beets, lettuce, radishes and swiss chard
Broccoli - just coming up - little small - hopeful that all is well with them
Onions, Garlic, shallots - all doing well - can't tell them apart???? Wish I would have marked a little clearer...Oh well, next time.
Potatoes! WOW! Should have planted more of these....they are doing great so far. Peter has decided to leave them alone for now...appreciated, thanks.
All Berries - doing well....leaves on blueberry bushes back to a nice green - HAPPY!
Herb Garden - flourishing..awaiting a trip to Lowes to pick up some good organic garden soil to place in the old fashion fruit boxes I picked up at a local used furniture store - will be making them into basil boxes and other lettuces for the front porch where it is cooler - they should be very productive AND look great on the front porch
Hey, let me know how your garden is growing! Did you survive the FREEZING temps last night?
Have a great evening!
Later!
5/24/10-Everything is in. I planted my tomato seedlings this past Friday night and I swear they have grown at least an inch even tho' there hasn't been much sun. I as so afraid because they seemed so fragile. We just have to let God do his things! :-) Everything else is doing well. I'm taking pics on Wed of everything. HA! It's like we have new babies! This has been lots of fun. Everything looks great Ally! Any thoughts on why my onions that I planted [sets] a month ago show no sign of green above ground? Should I dig a little patch up and see what's going on under there? Or am I being impatient? I know nothing about onions.
