Garden Mumbling

A cool rainy day, just what the slugs like. I'm hoping that the early warm weather we had over the past few weeks gave the veggies a head start in growing out of their easy reach. Took the basil and melon starters out of the greenhouse for an afternoon of direct light, but back in they went for the night.

Weeds are doing extremely well. Spent some time on my knees with the hori hori, my favorite tool.


Harvest ready in the garden:  Broccoli, lettuce, spinach, green onions, asparagus, arugula, chard, radishes.
