Garden Notes 2023

It doesn’t look like I did much, but there was a fair amount of garden work done yesterday. I’ve set up the trellis (minus the netting) and moved out the old totes of soil that had brassicas last year, and didn’t get into the shed in time for winter. (The soil is in those two pots on the right – waiting for warmer weather, and deck plants.) The other two pots are bulbs that still looked like they had some life in them, so I’d left them out under the magnolia for the winter. I’ve moved them out into the sun.

I also moved a lot around in the shed. Some items are now up on the deck, where we could use them. (We got into the 80s on Friday, but that should not happen again soon.) I got the rain barrels and deck planter out, but need a little help to get them to their final destinations. I also got a few pots of herbs out to their respective homes, though they don’t look like much yet.

This morning, I planted up the first batch of the first round of seedlings – peppers and dahlias. The second round is nearly all sprouted, but I’m still in that interesting spot of having both the seed starters and regular trays competing for room on the shelves.
