Last update was that the tomatoes had died.
Fortunately, however, we had loads that had grown on their own from last year’s seeds which had fallen into the ground and sat out the winter.
They were transplanted into trays to make way for additional raised beds, and were subsequently transplanted into their own raised beds around a week ago, where they are doing beautifully.
On the 13th, we planted several trays of summer melons, various organic peppers, some more tomatoes. We also planted the asparagus from seed, and some more beans and peas directly into a bed of their own.
Took about 7-10 days for the peppers to sprout (although some of the ‘Chinese Giant Peppers’ are only just now starting to sprout), 3-5 for the melons, and the beans and peas seemed to come up in a day or two.
We planted all of the root veggies (except for the potatoes) on the 16th and 17th, and the carrots are in full sprouting glory. (Took about a week for those)
I noticed this morning that some of the asparagus is as much as 2″ tall, with most more around 1″.
