Spring planting

Last weekend I planted the leftover green onion roots after making chicken fried rice and five containers of potatoes, one more than last year. No pictures because half empty 15 gallon grow bags aren’t really very exciting. But this weekend things got going in earnest. Now we have lettuce (red & green romaine, butter crunch & green leaf), spinach and onions (yellow and sweet).

It was actually cold enough last night that I covered the plantings. about 28 when I got up this morning. Tomorrow I’ll get carrot and radish seeds planted and tack down some landscape cloth where I’ll be keeping the containers.

I’m building specific pages to track each vegetable. Makes it easy for me to see how things go across seasons and allows me to store some helpful references for the future. Looking at the yard I may try to get the Deere started tomorrow as well because it’s probably only going to be another week or two before grass cutting gets going.
