Planting for this week
It is time to start Cauliflower bedding plants in the greenhouse. I have a dozen plants started three weeks ago in gallon pots in the greenhouse. Another sixpack of 10 plants have just come up. I will start some more next weekend and continue doing so bi-weekly until late next spring. The first plants will go into the ground at the end of the month.
Just started som spinach and will plant a sixpack of Kohlrabi and Rutabaga this evening.
I discovered rutabaga three years ago at a farmers market and decided to try growing some. And much to my surprise, I found it easy to grow, stores nicely in the ground, and can be grown here almost year round. A happy Rutabaga can get huge - about the size of a cantalope.
I will start another hill of chard this week too.
Note that I make my own planting mix - 1/3 screened compost, a bit of supersoil, and the rest garden soil.
