Well slowly but surely, it's looking and feeling more like spring around here. We've had a long winter this year, and even now there is still snow on the ground in places... Quite the contrast from last year when we had temperatures around 25c (77f) in March! Now's the time when all the seeds start coming out in stores. And people's thoughts turn to warmer days and green gardens. Everyone is prepping their seeds, getting ready for this year's gardening season. I love this time of year.
As for what I've been up to...
My green onions did very well over the winter. I'm very happy with how they performed! Even the ones that were cut and used have grown back so fast you can hardly tell them from the ones I haven't harvested yet! I give them an A+! I'll definitely be planting more in the future.
I've also rooted some Rosemary cuttings for this year. Since the one I had last year didn't make it over winter. It got attacked pretty bad by powdery mildew...
As for my plans for this year. I've already seeded some more leaf lettuce, and will be planting the rest of my Radish seeds even though I failed to get Radishes last year. I eat the greens so it's still worth planting them. I also planted new seeds recently, a heirloom variety of Basil! I LOVE Basil... so this will be quite a treat if it works out.
