no rest for this bunnie, loaded up the tiller shovel,rake and fertilizer,. the poor pea patch needed some serious rework... tiller between the hills and shoveled back on to them.. after getting that done notice the evil onion flies are out there so sprayed them will do it again in a couple days...

had a jar of old carrots seeds so planted them, personally dont like spring carrots but the dogs do..

mowed the property, swept out the barn, hosed off the mower....called it a day now drinking some distilled carrot juice...

4/7/18 update.....
spent some time readjusting everyone on the up tier, it was starting to get overcrowded so made the top mators only. while there did a little trimming of lower leafs and pinched off flowers.. needed to spend them out so their stems would start getting stronger, now 8 per tray instead of 18
only a week or two till hardening off time.....

everyone else went to the lower tier.... mainly peppers the far right tray have melons and cucumbers sprouting as of yesterday

for fun left these flowers on a new yorker, rubbed 2 of the flowers together in hopes of pollinating them....

as for the plants outside we had a hard frost the other morning and they are calling for another tonight.. might be a total loss will know more tomorrow morning.... staying positive ..

well my big idea of planting early has backfired on me.... pretty much lost everything out there

the kale faired better...still a couple tossed

a happier note..the muscadine grapes are starting to bud. the pippin apple is flowering.

and the kiwi it's starting to leaf out..

so some good and bad news....
