If it's really slow to upload my posts, then I probably will quit this one again! This Year is going to be great, I've already got a good feeling. 1300 Sq ft greenhouse up plastic on next week-ish, heat cables in, mini 5×8 greenhouses up, rye to be tilled as soon as it dries, and seeds to start Friday potentially?   Friday, April 4 View Page Seeds went into bags before I headed off to the GVGO seminar! Greenhouse plants are started. I'll get more pics when I start my outdoors plants, too busy today.   Saturday, April 5 View Page Forecast isn't great in my 10ish day range for transplanting out in my 4 inch pots. I may have to use half gallon pots to get a couple extra days... depends how well my bug greenhouse helps once it's up   Sunday, April 6 View Page 1668 butler popped in 45 hours, into the pot and under the lights now. Hoping to be in the garden within 14 days.   Monday, April 7 View Page The 1507.5 sproule has popped a root! Into a pot. Expecting seed to pop from the soil in maybe 2 or 3 days?   Monday, April 7 View Page Getting less and less excited. The one problem with germinating this way... 2117 Bryson popped today. This was the 1 I want most. Hopefully gets more exciting with leaves and growth soon. My heat cables have the ground very warm, my mini greenhouse was almost 5°C (like 10° F) above exterior temp this morning. So should be warm enough to plant soon. Not sure exactly air temp you guys look for... guess I'll ask.   Wednesday, April 9 View Page Plastic is going up. More pics to follow over the next few days as I finish it.   Wednesday, April 9 View Page Giant Radishes. This is a first for me. We'll see how this goes.   Wednesday, April 9 View Page Giant Beets. I bought a bug assorted lot from PECPG auction last year, and this happened to come in it. So I tried it last year and got a 20 pounder, so now they're definitely going to be a regular in the garden.   Wednesday, April 9 View Page Giant Beets. I bought a big assorted lot from PECPG auction last year, and this happened to come in it. So I tried it last year and got a 20 pounder, so now they're definitely going to be a regular in the garden.   Wednesday, April 9 View Page Giant Swede (Rutabaga). Tried these 3 or 4 years ago, and grew a 40 pounder first try. Since then I think I've weighed 3 40+ pounders. Trying for 50 or 60, but they never get a ton of attention. They're pretty easy, I like them.
