We had overwintered kale overtheweekend and can expect more overtheweeks.
An even dozen 2024 kale plants stayed thru the Winter. They weren't hugging like @Branching Out 's carrots but scattered everywhere from the front yard to the back fence. Working around them for preparing for the 2025 season wasn't much of a problem.
I moved 3 of the 4 in the hoop house out into the yard while rebuilding the path walls. Those will get a break but hardly look like they need a recovery except by comparison to the ones that didn't undergo a move.
Mustard greens and Asian greens seedlings in the hoop house beds will need a little time to recover from transplanting.
i have two pint jars of garlic pickle from 2013 (sure doesn't seem like it was that long ago when i made it), it's wonderful stuff but a little goes a long ways and i just kinda forgot about it for years.
now i'm going to use it when i'm planting this coming season. it will go in the trenches for the peppers and onions - just a little as some extra fertilizer and trace nutrients. it will keep most things away i'm sure as the main ingredient is garlic... vampires need not apply...
