I finally picked up veggie fertilizer for my seedlings and sweet potatoes today. They're in pretty rough shape! I'm very, very unhappy with the potting soil I bought this year. This evening I'll be feeding them all and seeing what I think is salvageable over the next week or two. It's time to start another round of seeds also, but I'm still waiting on my tromboncino squash seed to get here.

Got plot dug for rhubarb and strawberries- will get those in the ground hopefully this morning.
Got peonies and columbine in the ground yesterday.
Today I need to find my seed trays and prepare them for planting tomorrow or Sunday. Seeds are ready.
Did You get those Lilies also...?!?
 
We're still 3-1/2 months away from planting outside, but we're going to start some seeds inside. Mainly my pepper seeds. First we need to pick up some potting soil, when we're able to drive out of here, probably next week. We decided to go with raised beds for most of our garden, except for things like potatoes and corn. I'll make covers for the raised beds too, since we can get snow and frost up to the end of June. I bought a new engine for the rototiller. I guess there's no hurry changing it out but it's on my list.
 
Yay! Spring is here! :great:

Beautiful sunny day and the temperature got up to 64 F at my place today, perfect weather for starting to get the garden beds cleaned up. Today I got 2 beds cleaned and prepped for putting seeds into the ground this week. Six more beds remain to get prepped. It was the nicest, warmest weather we've had in three months and it's supposed to be like this for the next few days. The rhubarb is coming up and the Russian garlic I planted in autumn is all growing nicely, the stalks are now about 6 inches high above the surface. Every one of the garlic cloves I planted came up. :thumbs:
