Had a very productive morning pulling most of the pea plants since it's warming up and they are giving up the ghost; the beets are BEAUTIFUL and huge! We pulled a bunch, divided them between the helpers, and didn't have leftover to put out on the corner! The carrots are growing long and straight...except for a few "best friends" that curve around each other, the onions are doing well, the peanut plants are almost all up and growing well; the tomato plants are beautiful, and the cucumbers are even starting to look like they will get with the program and GROW!
The red potatoes we planted back in March must have been chemically "treated" - - not ONE sprouted. That bed has now been planted in zucchini, yellow zucchini, and crookneck squash. If you're not a producer, you just might get replaced!! (Hmmmm, life metaphor???)
The kids sure had fun helping with everything...loved seeing their excitement when pulling carrots!
