And they're off!

Alli and I planted two squares of long carrots + radishes, and two squares of baby carrots + radishes. That leaves six squares left to fill with carrots + radishes, so we can do those in two more successive plantings at two week intervals. Alli put labels in the garden, and I updated the layout spreadsheet to show where we've planted.

Who's planting the turnips, green onions, and anything else that we're supposed to start this weekend?

We also need to figure out a watering schedule now that we've got plants in the ground. Melissa, do you know how often we're supposed to water?

  1. I have time to plant tomorrow afternoon. L&S, if you feel like coming by, we can divide the tasks, otherwise I can cover the turnips, green onions and garlic.

    re: watering, all of these are to be misted once a day, preferably in the afternoon, until the seeds sprout, which will take one to three weeks. I can do so easily tomorrow, Monday, and Tuesday, but am not sure about Wed & Thurs.

    Hooray for the first directly sown seeds!

  2. Yeah Tim and Ali (and Tweebie)! We're booked all day Sunday, but I can come over on Monday morning to do whatever the rest of you haven't done.
