It’s about 2 weeks until I start germinating some of my plants to go outside. They go out the last week of May, there’s usually a frost near the end of May. Squashes and other long plants don’t do so well here.
So what’s in everyone minds to get going this year? I usually try to get some cucumbers if they can finish in time, as well as tomatoes, peppers, peas, carrots and lettuce.
An early unexpected frost took my peppers and tomatoes last year unfortunately.
Nice! I was in the middle of expanding last year and got a hernia in still waiting to get looked at, yay health care, so avoiding extra curricular stuff for right now unfortunately.
3a-4b if I started my stuff now I would have monsters by the end of May, stuff starts getting hardened beginning of May temp depending though. I did start some tomatoes last week to go in my indoor tent though, so it’ll let me know if my timings off since it’s 3 weeks ahead.
All else fails buy some decent established plants from the nursery’s or hardware store.
Ohh potatoes, I did one of those tiered planters, frost got it before they were done -.- but that’s life.
The expansion I am working on is along a E\W fence line on the N side, so I think some corn or some sunflowers will do nicely if they don’t get too leggy first.
