AMKuska's 2019 Garden Thread

[AMKuska]

Last night we potted up all the plants into bigger containers. The cucumbers are already flowering. They were so big, they had to go in three gallon pots! Two tomatoes and some lettuce also made it into the 3 gallon squad.

My husband yelled at me for buying more seeds. We already have enough he says. But we didn't have ANY peas, and it was buy one get one!

Made me think of Alex and his hoarding skills.

Things are going good in the garden. I spent a wonderful hour in my greenhouse today. I pulled all the plants out, set cold weather plants out to begin hardening off, the warm ones inside sorted by who needs potted up and who doesn't, and who isn't doing well and needs scrapped.

The pea plants my MIL gave me didn't survive (no surprise there) and my spinach bolted. The radishes my husband planted were great fat things, so I just pulled them for my lunch tomorrow. I'll also have some lettuce and eggs all from my garden. Delicious.

All the plants I got from @majorcatfish sprouted, and I potted up several of the melons. They're small, but growing.

Reorganized everything, and put it all back in.

I also planted a root vegetable garden in my raised garden bed. We'll see how it goes.

Looks like that 5 mile run wore her out lol. You should come over and run Bloomsday.

I'd love to borrow a dog that can keep up. My dogs all poop out around the 3 mile mark.

First meal from the garden today! We included lettuce from the greenhouse in our wraps. Today I'll make a salad with our eggs, radishes, and greens in it to go with out spaghetti.
