In the Garden…April
April 12, and our previously perky sprouts have called it quits.
All but that one little guy, who I think is an eggplant. Our over-zealous watering took out not only our nice handwritten signs, but much of our crop as well.
At least the tomatoes are still hanging in there —
Outside things are moving right along. The snap peas are winning. I think it’s their super-cool au natural trellis that keeps them reaching for the stars.
The rhubarb rules–
The garlic is doing great.
I overheard at the garden store that garlic and raspberries are a recommended pairing. Maybe that’s why both these guys are going strong. I love the look of these early raspberry leaves.
It seems I might have had some slight miscalculations when plotting out our square foot garden, and now I can’t be sure if this square is carrots or onions. I had been 99% sure it was carrots, until these sprouts poked through —
They do not look like the frilly tops that I associate with carrots. Any chance they are onions?
