If you planted before last winter it will probably bolt this spring.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563051087162389665.post-47441021926027380162010-03-27T11:31:48.790-04:002010-03-27T11:31:48.790-04:00We all do the best we can.

Your garden is already doing so well with the addition of your beds, I know this year is going to be a great garden year for you!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563051087162389665.post-24400972028184645202010-03-26T23:14:35.357-04:002010-03-26T23:14:35.357-04:00Yep, it looks like too much rain making the leaves...Yep, it looks like too much rain making the leaves turn yellow. The cabbage transplants are still worth saving, and maybe you could tuck one in a homemade swc....It's gonna be a good year for you, I just know it.Jeff Vandiverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200011426236637927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563051087162389665.post-2197495453241601152010-03-26T23:01:28.841-04:002010-03-26T23:01:28.841-04:00I'd say it's all looking pretty good!

Your strawberries would probably like a bit of fertilizer about now, since they are thinking about giving forth fruit. Hmmm, can you find a few buckets, drill some drainage holes in the bottoms, fill them with compost (that cheap 99-cent stuff might even work) and plant a cabbage/broccoli in each one? Mine looked worse than that last year, but they survived!Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563051087162389665.post-76975968465522801102010-03-26T20:33:14.264-04:002010-03-26T20:33:14.264-04:00I'm quite impressed with your square foot gard...I'm quite impressed with your square foot gardening technique and your raised beds. You've done a great job in creating your garden. I do hope the rain hasn't spoiled everything. Hopefully, you'll reap lots of spring veggies. If I were you, I'd compost those seedlings in the container...fast! :-)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106128705768954876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563051087162389665.post-44261985278690496632010-03-26T19:58:03.005-04:002010-03-26T19:58:03.005-04:00Fantastic!
