image from clipart-library.com Beautiful blue clear sky this morning at 7:30 AM. Going to be a great day. I know you are going to try to be out in your gardens. Our growing season is going well. The miracle house is growing plants with this sun and extra heat the sun gives the plants it is awesome.
My watering is daily, and I can’t miss that routine at all, or the plants will not be happy. I am here In the afternoons Monday thru Friday if you need seed potatoes, and onion sets. When should I plant my garden? The Farmers’ almanac has a planting calendar. I entered zip code and here are some of the vegetables and planting dates. Beets seeds Frost dates Apr 5-12 Moon dates Apr 5-7 Last date to plant May 17 Broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage transplants Frost dates Apr 19-May 3 Moon dates Apr 19-23 Cauliflower Frost dates Apr 26-May 10 Moon dates May 7-10 Green beans seeds Frost date May 10-31 Moon date May 10-23 Onions Frost date Apr 5-19 Moon date Apr 5-7 Peas seeds Frost date Apr 5-12 Moon date Apr 8-12 Potatoes, radish, swiss chard, lettuce, spinach Frost dates Apr 5-19 Moon dates Apr 5-7 Tomatoes, peppers Frost dates May 17-24 Moon dates May 17-23 I will post when to do the vine plants such as squash, watermelon, pumpkins. It is a later time than these vegetables. After June 6 is the perfect time to plant the vine plants. I promise you this works. This will give you some idea when you should plant in your vegetable garden. All I can say is get the garden ready, and plant when the time is right. ENJOY it all.
