First In
Planted first seeds outside today. Lettuce and beets. 3 types of beets. Beets are this year’s “experimental” veg. Each year I try to grow something new. Usually I fail miserably. We’ve tried eggplant, broccoli, artichokes, and maybe had one serving of whatever we were trying to grow. We’ve tried melons of various types and never once actually eaten a melon grown in our garden. We had modest success with brussels sprouts. We have high hopes for beets. Last year I “discovered” one could plant beets in late summer and decided to try, figuring I’d scoop up some marked down seeds at the hardware store. No luck there or a couple of other places. Apparently beets sell out.
