Today was the first official day the community garden is open, and it was a gorgeous day! But we didn't bother going out there, because the soil was far too wet to work with. Instead I puttered around the house, tidying the yard and shed. I pulled the lettuce seedlings out of the hothouse, and brought the onion starts outside as well, to harden off a bit. I also worked for awhile on a little project I cooked up last week to show the neighbors just how crazy I am: chopping down all the volunteer trees by our back fence with a hatchet!
Anyway, since the garden is open and the tomatoes and peppers are starting to come up I guess I better hurry up and finish my garden goals for 2012!
- Use growing beds more efficiently - get another crop in right away when one finishes, so I don't waste time and space growing weeds.
- Grow more root crops.
- Fill in herb bed.
- Finish reading the Master Gardener handbook.
- Keep planting records for everything.
