This is my first harvest of the season. This should have been the debut of my new harvest widget but my html editor crashed thanks to a great program called windows vista so it is now lost. I will have to start over so it will be coming soon. My first harvest weighted in at 1lb 11oz.The weather today was great so I headed out late afternoon to do some planting. Here are some photos of what I put in the ground:
The Bok Choy. I planted these two to a cell in March andtoday broke them up and planted 8 in a 4 foot row.
These are the Red Fingerling potatoes, the seed came from last years crop.I planted 6 seed in the bottom of a large 22" container. As they grow I will
fill the container thus replicating hilling. Later on I will extend the rock edging
to encapsulate the potato pot as well as making more room for addition plants.
I will end with some photos of all the greens I currently have growing in the veggie patch:
In the front we have 'Vesey's Baby Leaf Blend' and behind is 'Tortoiseshell' Spinach.The lettuce is settling in well and I hope with the warm weather coming it will take off.
The spinach is just starting to form true leaves.
In front is the Bok Choy I just planted out today and behind isthe Romaine Lettuce I plant out April 10th. The romaine is really
doing well and I will start thining every other one for salads soon.
The 'Tauro' Radicchio planted with onion sets.
The oak barrel greenhouse lettuce. I planted another 1/4 almosttwo weeks ago but it had very poor germination. Today I reseed
the whole barrel because time is ticking. The lettuce needs to be
harvested by May 24th to make way for three Jersey Devil Tomatoes.
