I got the rest of the kale seedlings out today. Some I planted some where the other seedlings had died. The rest went into beds in the back. One bed in particular gets midday shade in the summer. I am going to see how long I can keep the kale going in that bed – kind of a mini-experiment with kale permaculture.
I planted two of the beds in the front with alfalfa. Their soil needs some help and I think a cover crop will be very good for them. We have a good possibility of rain this week (Although I’ll believe it when I see it.), so hopefully all my little seedlings will get well established.
The garlic I planted a couple of weeks ago is starting to sprout. And some of the pea plants are starting to bloom, even though the plants haven’t reached full height. That’s probably due to the warm weather here. It has still been in the 80’s and high 70’s here. Really ridiculous for October. And a little scary.
