This year I started my Garden a full 6 weeks , maybe 7 before our last frost date ... some things were kept inside , while others went outside with a few simple cold frames.
Ill keep this brief , as I'm so far behind now , that most of this is slightly out of date. Well for this year anyways :))
|
Its always a good idea to harden your plants off for a few days, or even a week after starting them inside. Gets them used to the outdoors. |
|
Garlic that was planted last fall .. coming back strong!! Can't wait :)) |
|
This will become my first 3 sisters planting :)) |
|
Gotta watch it when you hardening off plants , Id left these outside and went to work , then we had an unexpected scorcher of a spring day ... All ten cucumber seedlings were burnt to a crisp in one afternoon :(( |
|
Oregano and thyme really appreciated the cold frame... they cam thru stronger than ever :)) |
|
Onions I left in from last year , and a few that had sprouted in my pantry . If they wont grow onions , I'm going to try and save the seeds this year . |
|
My Garden in mid - May , still 10 days before the last frost , but I thought Id risk a few things. |
|
Most everything in my garden is recycled .. including the plant markers, I got these strips from the scrap bin at a local lumber yard . Free!! |
|
Cold frames are gone , and tomatoes and pepper plants are in ... still one week of possible frost , but I was feeling lucky :)) |
|
Decided to try adding some straw to the garlic .. see if it would help with the weeds... It did a little , but also makes it harder to use a hoe between the rows .. Hmmmm |
Well , I'm getting there !! This brings us up to the 3rd week in May :) Almost there....
As always , questions or comments are most welcome.
Happy Gardening !!
