STILL trying to get a good night's sleep every night. IT's hit and miss, so some days I don't get much done.
Such was yesterday, but I Finally transplanted the 3rd Blueberry. In a row from east to west
Legacy---Legacy---Blue Crop
I still have to transplant the 2 seedless Concord Grapes. They will probably get transplanted this weekend, when DD's are out of town. I staged the one grape one top of the grape that died over the winter, and inside of the large tomato cage. Glad I waited, bc I want to do ALL new grapes correctly, and this will need to be planted one foot further south, so that the distance is 6' in between them.

I bought 4 of these blue pots at Dollar General back in early March. It is good know When stores like this Have Stuff like this. It is first come, first served, then, they are gone.
i bought 1 large pot ($10), not used Yet, 2 medium sized pots ($5), which have herbs and one small ($2.50)

, which was hard to figure out what to put into it.
I started chives, but they were old seeds and failed. I started again with newer seeds, success! These pots were so pretty I couldn't pass them up.

Those darn onion seeds, one of the few that really perish as they age. I've got a couple cell packs planted with them, its been 4 weeks + and still not all are up. I'm giving them until June, then I'll let go. But I noticed last week one of them has a couple sprouts so hope springs eternal. Be proud! Getting onions seeds to sprout is a challenge!
