More seed starting
Spring is a little over 30 days away so I started some spring greens. They include Winter Density Lettuce, Shanghai Bok Choy, Tatsoi and Boston Lettuce. I also started a couple trays of Alisa Craig onions. I am hoping to plant out the greens in the polytunnel during the first week of March, weather permitting of course. The seeds I started late January are also doing well, here are some photos of them:
Bottle Onions - Germination was a bit spotty but that seems to bethe case with this variety. Of the three trays I should have plenty.
Siletz Tomato - The first three seeds I planted did not germinate.I replanted five and now have three seedlings. Some fresh seed will
be needed next year and Ill replace it with a faster producing tom.
Black Brandywine Tomato - This one germinated well so I thinnedto the largest one and potted up. I am really looking forward to trying
this one. The early start should help this late producing variety get going.
On the weather front, this week is bringing a much needed warm up. Friday is forcasted to be 10c (50f). I hope this is a trend that will continue! The sun is feeling warmer, the birds are starting to sing, bring on spring!
