crafty_packratI transplated the Raspberry Lyanna tomato yesterday, and transferred some of the cucumber and peanut seedlings to actual pots instead of jiffy-pots yesterday. I put four nasturiums into the hanging basket -- hopefully that's early enough for them to develop a decent root system before temperatures get scaldingly hotl.
Today, I planted some hollyhock in some of the planters.
I'm still waiting for more of the peppers to get larger before I put them in the hanging pot. All of the solacaneae are vulnerable to sun scald, so I'm hoping they harden in the next few weeks and then I can really set them out.
The community garden area looks pretty vacant right now, though the parsnips and carrots I planted last year have gotten huge and are about to flower -- oh well, that's what happens when you forget to pick root vegetable. The kale from last year is dead, but it self-seeded and there are a billion kale seedlings growing in that patch. I might also plant some squash, melons, and cassabanana over there to see if anything sticks.
