Peas Pleas

Yes another amazing day of weather in the garden!!

So to day I planted peas, and hope to plant more tomorrow.

I planted sweet snap peas.

They are a claiming plant that likes to be planted close together. So I put some tomato cages in the ground and plant peas in a circle around the bottom.

You do not need to work the ground to plant pees, and often are the first thing to go in, in the spring. It has been so warme that I did work our triangle bed, added ash, calcium and a good helping of peat moss. We had issues last year of needing more calcium in the soil. This bed being only a year old, needed more loam. I like to find three to four worms in my soil every time I turn it with the fork. If I do not more organic material goes in. Here in our little part of the world we have lost of clay, so the more the merrier when it comes to adding to the soil.

Happy planting!

Frist Planting of 2010

Today with the high of 55 degrees F, my yard called. It also called to Jeremy who has spent 5h at it also, parly brcaus he feels better, after spending two full days in bed with a cold.
Jeremy has raked the yard, turned over all the beds, turned over the compost, and a lot of little clean up.
I focused my energy on my long north west bed, it is fully thawed. The huge benefit of raised beds is that they heat up faster in the spring and stay warmer longer in the fall.

To day I planted
Radish
Bulls Blood Beets
Arugula
Lettuces Mix
Spinach
Carrots

I hope to be be harvesting my own salad in late March.
Happy Planting!!
