This is the beginning of the part of the year for gardeners when time flies and there rarely seems to be enough hours in the day. Whether planning, planting, or preparations, time simply slips through the fingers. I am already enjoying my decision to simplify and reduce (hey, that sounds like algebra...) my garden activities. A few days ago I felt desperately behind, but today all things seem to be on track.
I've updated my welcome page - scroll to the news items at the bottom, where you will find a list of the various gardening talks already populating my calendar - as they approach, I will add links and further info if you wish to attend any of them.
I've also finished a tentative update of my 2014 seedlings list on the From The Vine page.
As for what is now being gently warmed in front of my office windows on heat mats....A flat of greens, lettuce, beets and herbs (planted two days ago) is already showing signs of life. Occupying a neighboring heat mat is a flat of eggplant, ground cherries, hot and sweet peppers. If all goes well, tomorrow will be tomato seed planting day.
.....and then I wait and observe and report.....leading up to transplant time in about a month!
