2026 Gardens

[ness]

The last week or so I've been hardening things off. Some really dry and windy weather made it necessary to put everything under plastic.

All is well, and today I transplanted the lettuce and herbs out. Tomatoes and peppers are looking good but I'm going to wait about a week to see what the weather does. Looks good now, but you know how that goes.

Got 10 of the 16 tomato plants in the ground that we are putting in this year, scaling back a bit.

Radishes should be harvested in the next two weeks and ready for the next round. Beets and turnips are up. Onions are looking good and bush beans are just starting to pop.

May need to cover some stuff next sunday when we dip to 38... but also just may let it all ride, we'll see.

Got started late this year. Peas are in and about 4 inches tall. Plants are hardening and will go in the ground in the next few days. This year I went with a mini cherry plant, Veranda, for the same reasons as Ness. I have Early Girls and a few other determinate plants ready to go in fresh potting soil in my pots. Between bugs, birds, and squirrels the later season just never works for me. When the peas are done, in go the cukes. This year every pot gets a marigold. Fake owls and spinners will go up too. We will see.
