What Did You Do In The Garden?

[PennyJo]

We used weed block under the tires I planted in... none of my seeds came up but realized I had tried too early
I do not use heat in the greenhouse yet so that went against us also

The Olmeca Tomato seeds I planted~well I was worried that: Because they were so small, compared to regular tomato seeds, that maybe I planted them too deep~Well just now in the green house, I see that two are in the throws of sprouting, I moved them from under the shade cloth to a sunny location, still inside the Greenhouse.
I almost smiled.

When you say" weed block" do you mean plastic sheet?

it is a black fabric better at blocking weed growth

Picked a few juicy stalks of rhubarb...peeled, salted, ate 'em raw! Scuffed up a few weed seedlings, repurposed an old picket fence into a garden gate. That's about it. It frosted pretty heavy here last night and supposed to do it again tonight....wood stove feels good right now.

Can you see how much thinner, more delicate these Olmeca tomato sprouts are that regular tomatoes? Or does it not show in the picture~

Wow, Bee really frost!

I transplanted my tomatoes and peppers in a larger (really large) pot to wait until I have the fence up in the garden. They've were seeded about a month ago but they are looking pretty nice. I thought they were insect riddled until I got close enough to see it was just potting soil splashed up on them.

DH read about how beets are good for you so now he insist I need to grow them. Him and the Wildbunch complains every time I have ever cooked them but now he thinks he will eat them, lol. If he doesn't I will. I love beets, pickles beets, and beet greens.

I am fond of Beets, quite! These days they're all the color of the day, like you've heard, like a health food~some types can be eaten raw without making your teeth feel funny.

The sprouts! When they surfaced they were hair thin~the seed themselves are very small.
