Yeah! This is my first big planting for my summer garden. I planted celery, celeriac, onions, bunching onions (scallions), leeks, and artichokes. I also sowed some flower seeds: milkweed, aster, and chamomile. Here is the link to
my 2018 planting list.
wahoo! my leeks have broke ground on their heat pad, time to move them off the heat...nw coastal gardener
ReplyDeleteGo sprouts!! My leeks will be a few more days yet. I’ve been peering deeply into the seed pots, but no little yellowish-green sprouts yet. I fell off the wagon so to speak today and bought more seeds. I really do have enough already. I got 5 or 6 more packets from Johnny’s. Several varieties of peppers, a zinnia mix, orange gem marigold, and that new funky cross between a kale and a Brussels sprout. I was wondering who grows this crazy stuff. Well I’m planning to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI fell off the wagon too...I am expanding my flower cutting garden this year....just ordered some calendula and snapdragon seeds from Floret Flower Farm for my cutting garden...I ordered other flowers from them earlier.... their flowers are selected just for cutting...would you believe after the warm weather we had we now have snow on the ground...very rare here on the beach...nw coastal garden
ReplyDeleteyou grow bandit leeks too, I have always had good germination...85-95% this year I needed new seeds and only a third of the seeds have germinated...how have yours done? I reseeded yesterday. nw coastal gardener
ReplyDeleteMy Bandit leeks came up very well. It took them about 5 days I think.
