What Did You Do In The Garden?

The neighborhood Oregon Grape (Berberis aquifolium) has just begun to bloom and serves as my prompt to plant peas and potatoes. The peas are in the ground but the seed potatoes have just a few sprouts. I may go out and dig some holes where they should go in this afternoon since it has stopped raining .

The Tiara cabbage and onions have gone to outdoor beds after several days of hardening off. Both look good. The onion seed was planted in the unheated greenhouse nearly 3 months ago. They join the pak choy and mustard greens that didn't fit into the hoop house. These rain clouds kept the temps quite a bit above freezing this morning, sprinkled a little moisture and continue to shield the transplants from the sunshine that shown on the other days this week.

The greenhouse finally made it to room temperature by 2 PM but the tomatoes and peppers are spending the day in the South Window. There is barely enough room for them but that opportunity is quite a contrast to years gone by when I would be pumping heat into the greenhouse at this time of year.

Wow, seeds & plants in the ground already. So lucky!

@digitS' Good job getting seeds planted. It is a warm spring and all the critters are out early too. The Good, Bad and the Ugly.
