I admit. I'm really looking forward to Spring.A guy down at the greenhouse shop said that he was was starting his brassicas mid-January to put out into his garden mid-February.
I thought I would try that.
Well, the brassicas did survive, but barely. I'm not impressed. I forgot how much the bugs (and apparently birds) like brassicas.
So I thought maybe carrot starts would do better in the garden this winter and then other things.
And the bugs aren't overly fond of carrots.
I started these indoors, same time: mid-January. Transplanting them outdoors a few at a time since mid-February.
They seem to be thriving. Nice!
On the other hand, I've been harvesting last year's carrots all winter long. Pretty yummy.
And now, second week in March, the rhubarb is beginning to come up. Nice.
