My Vegetable garden is also coming along well!
Top Left - Yes, these are cucumber and squash plants. (Park Seed Organic Early Summer Squash and Park Seed Cucumber, Early Spring, Burpless).
I started these plants indoors with my other plants. However, with my lack of experience with seed starting, the date of 02/26/12 was way too early to start these plants indoors! I did not have the heart to just kill them, so I decided to give them a try outside. With the warm weather we have been having they are doing quite well so far, not sure what the future brings for these
Top Right - Kale, Dwarf Blue Curled, Vate's Strain (Ferry-Morse). I have already had a harvest from this Kale in which I made some yummy Kale and Lentil Soup, for which I came up with the recipe myself!
Center - In the large bed my husband and I have transplanted my Broccoli (De Cicco), Brussel Sprouts (Catskill), Cabbage (Copenhagen Market, Early), Cabbage (Crisp and Cool). In the small bed are my Radishes (Cherry Belle).
Bottom Left - My Lettuce (Grand Rapids) is ready for harvest!
Bottom Right - Spinach (Bloomsdale, Longstanding Heirloom) is also very close to harvest time!
Happy Gardening!

Man that all looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI am very happy with my seedlings that I have transplanted, as well as the direct sow seeds! We have been having such unusually warm weather, I am hoping it doesn't mess up my cool weather crops!

looks great Mindy...I actually sow most of these outdoors under a row cover and they love it in my zone 5b...started them in mid March with the warm weather..they will grow slow but it is fun...happy harvest...
ReplyDeleteThat is interesting, sowing them under row covers! That definitely allows you to start earlier, which is great! Just harvested some lettuce (Grand Rapids) and Spinach (Bloomsdale) this morning for dinner this evening! Very tasty salad!
DeleteHappy Gardening!
