Day before yesterday Jen came home with a bunch of LLama beans, which apparently can go directly on the garden, so yesterday it was time to put some of it on all of the beds and in the main garden itself. I had also completed turning under the peas yesterday afternoon as well, so after a couple of weeks for the peas to decompose the garden will be ready to plant.
The strawberries are in flowering mode so it was time to add some booster in the form of Bat Guano tea, some in the rows and some on the plants themselves, Maybe it is just wishful thinking but they looked much bigger tonight already.
Dahlias are starting to pop through the tops of the soil in the pots. I had finished getting them all ready on Monday and have been putting them in the sun during the morning. The starts are mostly doing well, lost a few of the weaker ones already. Russ got his tubers today.
Started tomatoes, peppers and basil tonight, it is just after the new moon, and even though we probably should have started them a month ago, we went for it anyway. Used Steve Solomon's method of making the soil, added some Azomite for good measure, and put the trays in plastic bags by the windows.
Temps have been in the low 80's in the heat of the day, lows in the mid 40's so it is unseasonably warm.
