Dwarf Tomato Update May 2

These dwarfs are looking happy after transplant, now F3 both Worry and Scary should provide some interesting results ..... note the potato leaf foliage

Plot 5 Garden Progress April 30

Finally time to start updating my garden year ......

here is Plot 5 at the end of April - the Marathon seeding session is beginning to show results ... potatoes have been planted, radishes are popping up and garlic chives have gone wild

April 16 Plot 5 Marathon Seeding Session

Received a suggested Spring planting plan from Renee's Seeds, and as I had most of the seed, decided to try it out .... similar seeds, with a slightly varied layout:

Raised_Bed_Project-Spring_Season_What_and_How_to_Plant

First - the garden - this year has been extremely cold and wet - but the mud is slowly drying out and our soil has arrived at the community garden .......... only remaining plants are my Patriot Blueberry, one very small over wintered kale and some garlic chives - the chives are tasty, but I seldom use them; the bees however go crazy over the blossoms - so they get to stay

and here are the seeds that were sown - oh almost forgot - also planted two Brokali plants that were purchased on trip to garden store

April 10 and 14 Time for Potting Up

Once again I've over planted - is is always hard to choose which will get potted up ....

March 21 and April 6 and They're Off

Here they are ........ a bit of a slow start, but with just natural light I like to keep them cool and on the dry side

and a few weeks later, looking good - these are two varieties from the Dwarf Project grow out - searching for cherries this round - Scary (3 in front) and Worry (2 in back), both F3 and both Potato Leaf
