Ohhhh, I thought the transplant was in the ground... whoops. You meant into the Greenhouse I guess. We were all praying they make it outside in the cold temps. lol

We have a nasty cold snap right now. Polar fleece/fireplace weather. Sticker shock at Atwoods - tiny Bonnie herb plants 5.09 to 7.98.

We have some mid 50s weather coming up, so I'll be outside hauling dirt and getting things ready for my seedlings. Still have freeze temp at night, but I'll be ready when the weather is!!!

Bought a soil thermometer. I think in previous years I planted my cool weather plants too late, so I'll try earlier this year.

Growing Pumpkin Seeds in a clear container is fun.

Bounty from last years garden going into St. Patty's day weekend dinner.



Potatoes, carrots and homemade sauerkraut, a nice Montana point brisket, 1 Scottish Ale from a local brewery.

Yes it's supposed to be just 'cabbage'- but I'm Scots Irish and German descent so phbbbtt!

I need to learn from you. Freeze & preserve instead throw into compost.


==================

Its time to recycle the cardboard. Hard to weed between pavers so I am doing just the walking paths



Done. Weeds will be held down until September.



Between the Hot Tub and the Raised bed I only have a tiny area for something. lol

Same bed 7yrs ago

In addition to my indoor seedlings I plant SUPER early in two beds. All frost tolerant stuff, so we'll see. This week should be warm enough for them to sprout... maybe.

Grew a little pepper on the window sill.

It's a Hungarian pimiento pepper, I was only able to get one seed from the packet to germinate, and it came up with only one cotyledon leaf, which got eaten by a bug... so it took it a really long time to get going and was only 8" tall by the end of the season with no fruits or even flowers. But on the window sill, it continued to grow, and set its first fruit in early January, which began to ripen a couple weeks ago. I made sure it was nice and ripe before picking it, so now I can use the seeds to start more plants - just in time for 2024 seed starting too.

2nd Bed tilled.



I always thought I had clay soil due to the clumpy and cement when dry but all soil tests coming back saying I have Sandy Loam

Definitely needed a turning. A lot of rain and heavy rains compacted it big time over past 9 months
