Breaking news! I’ve broken ground! Seeds have been sown in the garden. Yay!!!
It’s been raining for two days now. Mother Nature is making sure the garden has water. I’m hoping they’re not flooded.
The onion starts have also been planted. I’m using two beds of onions this season just as I had last season. And just like last year, there are onions that I missed harvesting. Those onions are now sprouting in last season’s beds. I plan on leaving them there for a bit, then pulling them and using them as green onions. Great for soups and salads.
Surprise onion plants aside, sowing seeds takes a lot of timing and patience. It’s so important to know the weather, the growing zone, the last frost date, the vegetables which prefer to germinate in cooler or warmer weather, on and on and on… There’s so much information to know and stress about. Why would anyone want to garden?! For me, it’s fun. I enjoy planning the garden, trying new varieties of plants, saving seeds from one season to plant in the next, and being outside working in the dirt. Sometimes, I even manage to grow something! To be fair the plants do most of the work.
