The nice weather has certainly been a lovely change, hasn't it? Between enjoying the great outdoors, homework and general life I haven't been able to sit inside & blog (in fact, this post has been sitting on my computer waiting for me to hit "Publish" for days), but the garden is getting busy.
I sowed some lettuce, arugula & mustard seed last Sunday in the raised beds. No sprouting yet (to be expected) but I do need to set up my watering game on the non-rainy days. I've noticed some digging by squirrels in the planted area, so I'm thinking some row covers will be put on soon for protection.
Here are the latest photos of the onions, kohlrabi & Red Russian kale I planted indoors. The onions, for some reason, are having really spotty germination. In some cells, multiple seeds will germinate but in others none will. I'm trying to carefully separate the seedlings that are in one cell and put one in another cell. I've also started some Swiss Chard.
The Red Russian kale will definitely be ready to put out next weekend. Just in time to make room for the summer veggies that will be started shortly thereafter!
