What Are You Planting Today, This Week, This Month?

[digitS']

These sprouts are the most spindly things I've ever seen. Is that normal for broccoli?

You can try to cool 'em down.

It may be hard to do with lots of sun but the lots of sun will help them grow more sturdy, anyway.

If they are not getting lots of sun . . . AND they are in 70F plus . . . they are goin' to s t r e t c h !

Probably, 60 would be a good indoor temperature for broccoli, cabbage and such.

I think i've finally planted every variety I'm going to grow this year. Still have more seeds to germinate from some of the things though. My broccoli sprouts greeted me this morning. it will be fun to see how broccoli does in my climate. It is said that its a cool weather crop but, I wont be satisfied until i see for myself.

Replanted cantaloupe, yellow squash & zukes too(seedlings died too) & watermelon. There are little green sprouts everywhere out there!!

My Russian Fingerlings arrived today! I think it's still a bit early here so I'll wait a week or 2 yet I guess. Anyone have potatoes planted already in zone 5?

I am going to start with tomatoes and see how fast I kill them.

Are you starting seeds or buying plants? What zone are you in?
Think positive thoughts....they can feel those negative vibes!

The last 7 days I have planted:

more radish-champion and sparkler white tip
endive
started my cherry tomatos-sweet 100
10 gladiola corms
sweet william
"rescued" 2 more nectarines from the compost from last year...even though it occurs to me that they are probably plums...which reminds me I need to search for what the pits look like.

I got my 10 FREE trees from Arborday.org today. They are all little 1-2' runty branches. I have them sitting in water for now, and I will put the one's I've decided to keep in plastic containers and wait to transplant in the fall.

I'm keeping 2 dogwood, 2 crabapple and 2 washington hawthorn. I gave away 2 redbud to my neighbor to plant near his bee hive for early season flowers for his honey. Gave away my Goldenrain Trees to a friend to help her block her unsightly neighbor's yard.

Where I'm going to put those 6 for sure, I have NO idea! :/
