Today I got hit with a BAD case of spring fever. Temps in the 60's, with no sign of below freezing weather all week. Yeah I know it's March 22.. and we are bound to get another cold blast but what the hey... maybe I can fool the weather Gods into giving me enough snow to go sledding and skiing one more time by playing in the garden!
Mike pulled out the tiller and dug up the garden while I put the roses in their pots. Hopefully the fact that I didn't bring them in 2 wks ago when temps were 10 with wind chills at -10 didn't kill them.... we'll see...
I then planted some spinach and muslin mix in the garden :) I can't wait for fresh greens!!!! when you garden produce shopping in the winter is depressing! I also started my seedlings in the house. in this order in the container.. just so I don't forget ;)
Long Red Cayenne Peppers
Red Oxheart Tomato's for canning in Aug/Sept
Bell Pepper Color Mix
Tigerella Tomato's
Cilantro
Thai Basil
I found an old packet of peas when I was digging out my seeding stuff.. I may just have to throw them in the ground, I don't know if they will germinate, but what the heck if they don't I've lost nothing.. if they do I could be eating peas in May!
