Wow Harry, you have a lot of land there.

1 1/2 acres.....part of it is bush, but about 1 acre of workable land/lawn.

That's great.

Very

Well, it's almost the first day of spring and we are planning our 2022 gardens.
This year, as well as my in ground plot, I have built a few planters and going to build a few raised beds also. This will help my old back some I hope. The inground garden will have potatoes, zucchini, melons, that sort of thing. The planters/raised beds will have the smaller stuff that needs more care.

What are your plans for 2022?

A very nice (neat) yard

Planted 3 rows of potatoes this morning, 1 1/2 rows each of Russets and Chieftain Reds. I usually do twice as much, but my doctor says I am borderline diabetic now and have to watch my starch/sugars intake. Trouble is, I love my potatoes.....lol
Looks like rain the rest of the day.

Couple of hot humid days, things are starting to grow now.

Potatoes

Cucumbers

Tomatoes

 

[harrylee]

After a cool spring, things are starting to explode around here. Bit of a heat wave the last few days seems to have helped. It's the first year with raised beds/planters for me so everything is a bit hodgepodge and over crowded.

Cucumbers just starting to grow up trellis.

Tomatoes. Really overcrowded might have to pull a couple out.

Zucchini

Carrots and Beets need thinning

Peppers and Sweet potatoes...not doing much yet

Beans

Onions, more carrots

In the yard garden....Potatoes, Zucchini, Pumpkin, Squash and some corn.

Also, my 4 year old great grand daughter wanted her own garden, so I gave her some seeds and she went to town...This is the result. She must get the over crowding thing from me....lol

 

[Logan]

That's great that you're great grand daughter wants to have her own garden, that's how i started.
