Garden 2012
Its an unbelievably warm spring so far. Although today is the first day of spring, it feels more like summertime - it has been in the mid-80s all week! Aye aye. So I am being a bit brave and went ahead and planted beets (chiogga), kale (Siberian Dwarf), and Bok Choy. Bok Choy is new to me, but I don't think it will be too fussy... Also, this year I am soaking peas and dipping it in an inoculant. I haven't done this before, but it is supposed to "fix" the nitrogen and increase the yields. So hooray. I am also soaking some sweet peas, I have never had any luck with them. I am going to try to train them up some discarded branches I found in the yard. I think it might have a more interesting look than a traditional metal trellis. Hopefully, tomorrow, I can get the seeds started indoors. Super duper excited!
