Victory Garden status 5/16/2013


Things are starting to fall into place. We are getting some spring garden harvest and have some of the summer garden planted. Weather has been nice and warm and soil has a good season in it.


This week Bob and Latanya and I:
1. Tied up the new trellises.
2. Put pots beside the trellis.
3. Put pole beans and decorative gourd seeds in da pots.
4. Pulled 35 lbs of onyuns.
5. Replanted the purplehull peas.
6. Picked 19 lbs of kale and 4 lbs of scapes.
7. Harvested 16 lbs of Napa cabbige.
8. Replanted skips in da corn.
9. Weeded the aspergrass.

Dave harvested the garlic which is ready. We were delighted to have a grandma and 4 granddarlings visit the garden. They took home an elephant garlic and a very strong Belarus garlic. Dave will schedule a party to harvest the remaining garlic when it is ready.

Selby and Jan continue to work in the experimental plot. Looking good.

Laura, Connie, and I prepared the zinnia beds and planted them.
