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.
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
Radishes are an excellent choice for cool season food beds as they are sweet in frost and high in protein, perfect for winter when other food sources are scarce. If you are wondering when to plant radishes, the ideal months are late July to early September. In the northern areas of the US, planting can begin in June.
