First batch of lettuce has bolted and the second batch, started from seed in mid-April is ready to come in. 

Beets are coming along:

  Nice maters buddy. I did not start mine in December like you did :)

Hah! February 19 this year, and that seemed about perfect. I've updated my calendar. I'm trying to be more diligent about things in general too. Watering, feeding, spraying and pruning off bad leaves. After a couple crappy tomato years I am really wanting some results!

How are yours coming along? I get the feeling you're sand bagging on us.

   I would say 80 percent are doing real well. Have not looked real close to see what is forming. All the early rain I could not imagine I would be watering but I am.

Yeah, my raised beds got really dried out over the last few days and I really had to soak them last night and tonight. Temps in the nineties and big winds really changed things from the cool, damp conditions of previous weeks.

How often do you guys water maters in raised beds when it's warm like this? I usually let the soaker hose run a few hours a couple times a week, but thinking maybe I need to do it more often? Those raised beds drain pretty well if they get too wet, but they also dry out faster than a regular tilled garden.
