Took a quick look at all my plants today. It looks like the Sugar Sprint peas are coming up fairly nicely. I'm pleased with the progress.
Some of the radishes my girl scout troop planted are coming up nicely too. Although, I need to pull a few weeds around the area. And probably think them out a bit too. I expected as much for radishes.
I see a few spindly shoots in the spinach. You have to know what your looking for, but trust me there are a few shoots in this image.
My Snow peas are looking a bit sparse. My volunteer yesterday took a break from shoveling compost and planted some additional pea seeds for me. I also am noticing quite a bit of grass and other large weeds at the head of the row; I need to get a garden fork out there and take care of that before it becomes a major carpet of grass.
Beets and chard are starting to pop up. It is hard to see among the weeds popping up too, but again, they are there. Next week I'll have to spend some time weeding the rows once the tender shoots become a bit bigger.
But my strawberry plants are looking really good and healthy. Lots of flowers on there finally. (The new honey bees should love these!) It has taken awhile for these plants to flower, with our extremely cold winter and spring! But they are finally budding and I bet we'll see fruit by mid June.
I need another volunteer to come weed this too. The grass is bad in my strawberries since it is so close to the edge of the garden.
