March 17th-
FINALLY! Time to start getting some planting going! Remember to keep and eye on the weather, this is an iffy season through March. Its still a perfect time to plant veggies that are considered a cool season type.

We are going to get started with 5 plants of Cilantro, Broccoli and Cauliflower plants too!











But just a quick check on our Lettuce & Radish seeds! Look at these guys! They are really started to get big. The radish is to the right corner and the lettuce is to the left top side. This growth is only at a mere 1 month!








 OK back to the cauliflower & broccoli plants. Although these were kinda sad and droopy looking, the perked right up once planted and watered.

We started with the cauliflower first and spaced them about 12 inches apart in 4-5 inch holes.
 The old fashion way to dig holes..
 Place the little guy in there..
 And gently tamp the dirt in around it.
 Moving on, this is where the teamwork comes in at. Our daughter made quite a few holes, but I came along and spaced the plants more appropriately for Tommy to plant.
Finished rows of onions, freshly planted cauliflower & broccoli and you can see our row of half radish/half lettuce.
