2023 Garden thread

Dang!! You ever grow Romanesco? I've got a neighbor who ordered seeds and asked if I would plant them for her. It'll have to be a fall crop this year since didn't start early enough for the Spring.

Picking lettuce and spinach now along with beet tops. Asparagus is slowing down but the cooler night temps will get us a few more before going to fern. Put in the cucumbers I started from seed but might have put out too soon as a couple of those 40 degree nights put the hurt on them. Still some green so hoping will recover. Getting a hard rain all morning.+-

Is that the green headed ? I think I've grown it in the past. There's a broccoli and cauliflower that is about the same.

Mixed vegetables for winter. That's just what I got done today. I get to work on my well pump tomorrow and my parents a/c after that.

My garden is finally in. Even gonna try a few tomatoes, jalapenos, and squash in the front yard flower beds. Should be an interesting experiment!

Helped put in buddies garden today. Tomato's, squash, cucumber, bell pepper and corn.
All but the corn from plants he bought. Those 4" augers on the end of a drill motor make planting pretty easy.
He has one of those push type seeders with the plates for different seeds we put the corn in.
I think he's going to use it for putting in green beans tomorrow, but it's so danged easy he doesn't need any help.

Up to my ears in asparagus up here. Getting it while the getting is good. Some real fatties in there.

This is since Monday in my little patch

Got an itty bitty Black Elderberry var. Laced Up (along with a rudbeckia maxima) as a mate for a 3 gal black tower tower elderberry I found locally at TLC (for a fraction of online price) thank you @2busy for your assistance.

Long story short my HOA got complaints on my behooves so they gave me approval to replace part of my lawn with a pollinators harder that blocks the view of the hives.

Had to try and aureate ? The garden, been wet and rain in the forecast. This heavy clay needs air to grow.
Mustard greens are going to seed. If you want some, come get it. I've picked 4 grocery bags the last two days.

Greenhouse tomatoes are looking good.
