I'm pretty much repeating what I did last year, so far. Snap peas sowed Apr 16 are doing well. Will start vining up the fence soon.
Broccoli and cauliflower plants bought from Sweet Valley farms and transplanted to garden on Mar 30 are coming on. Some broccoli heads starting already. Planted beets, spinach, carrots, & radishes in the other half of the box on Apr 27. Radishes were up in a couple of days. Some beets are up but too small to see in the photo.
Brussels Sprout plants bought and planted at the same time as broccoli and cauliflower. One is a runt.

Yup, I thin to 1 to 2 inches apart. Didn't over plant very much though.

Trying something new with the weed block fabric.
Some of the tomatoes I purchased and had under light in the basement, got super long and thin, and I'll prob have to replace as they didn't look all that good in the heat on Saturday and a few snapped during planting.
Still have peas and cucs to put in. She wants to plant pumpkins in the back. Skipped the corn this year.

Nice!
Sorry I missed your earlier tag.
I always help pollenate a little with the pawpaws but the bugs seem to do a pretty good job.
Fruit cluster of eight!

This is a game changer and you'll actually want to get out there to harvest in July and August instead of weeding. How are you watering?

Ah, you two! Super jelly right now...on a side note I think I've identified a number of patches in the park that I wasn't aware of...or maybe I just suck at identifying plant...also, the plants around here seem a little bit behind with leaves, at least my neighbor's ones appear to be.

It’s easy to mistake them for hickory at first.
You’re always a few weeks behind up there. 😛
