So I definitely could have planted last weekend, but just as I was talking about getting the tomato cages down on Sunday it started to rain. This week was another busy week at work and so I have only had time to turn on and off the grow lights and pet the tomatoes, no time to plant after work. So tomorrow is the day. I expect this weekend to be garden filled:
The strawberries are blooming and thus need to be covered with bird netting or the chipmunks will eat them all.
The baby bok-choi is bolting (one of them) so I need to pick the others and cook them (maybe grill with a dash of balsamic vinegar?).
I've already picked and eaten over a half pound of radishes (put on salads and sandwiches) and will have to pick more...
...not to mention the mint that needs to be picked and made into mint jelly...
But most important of all - planting! This weekend everything will go out except maybe the pepper plants. Tomatoes, squash, melons, nasturtiums, eggplant, tomatillos - all of it. And I'll direct seed the beans (french filet of course, yellow and green). I will post pictures, I am so happy to be planting finally!
