It really has been unusually cold.
Not much growth from anything really. The peas and beans are just sitting there waiting. I have two 14 foot rows of peas in now. The two short rows with an earlier vriety called meteor are coming along slowly. I have some Milan Purple Top turnips that made an appearance and then stopped growing. Same with the lettuce and even the radishes.
I am going to put out some red cabbage this weekend. I really hope not to lose them to cutworm this year. I also have three nice Kale plants to go out. They should be fine - sturdy things!
The garlic I planted back in February is doing well. There are also some raspberry plants coming along nicely that made their own way in from another plot - nothing like free plants!
My neighbour is a very generous man too - and he gave me more strawberry runners than I could use. He is a really decent man!
