Garden Progress Report

Over the weekend, we bought a grow-light setup: the HydroFarm JumpStart system. It seemed like it was time to get the tomatoes and other seedlings under some serious light to take them to the next level of strong and green. So far, so good! The plants are all looking amazing.

"Blondkopfchen" seedling dubbed Ursula's Rising Star

Both the peas growing in containers on the balcony deck and the pea patch in the ground down below got trellising over the weekend. It didn't take long for the runners to start finding the string on the porch and the fencing in the patch.


This morning I saw the radishes starting to pop out of the ground!


We also sowed in peat pots "California Orange Wonder" bell peppers, and habanero, serrano, and Thai chili peppers are being started for us in the greenhouse at work.

Things are changing every day around here, and with Mike gone I try to record those changes as best I can during the week. This is not just a garden blog, however, so check in tomorrow for my post-in-the-making on prioritization!
