First Planting

I got up with the sun this morning and went out to get the first seeds in the ground; trying to see if I can extend the growing season past six months total. Note to self, take the time to mulch the bed at the end of the season to keep the clover down (actually oxalis, I think). It would be smart to take some more time to prep the bed before planting next year as well, but I’m impatient to get stuff in the ground so I end up culling through each square on a page-demand basis.

So I dropped one square each of arugula, lettuces, spinach, bok choy, chard, carrots and radishes. I’m hoping to get some time this weekend to setup some type of hot box for sprouting and I can begin some of my own seedlings for plants which aren’t ready to put in the ground yet.
