Despite perpetually cloudy skies and unseasonably cold days, we do have sprouts! Two varieties of lettuce, spinach, garlic and onions all have popped up, but we're still waiting on the carrots.
The parsley, oregano, thyme and rosemary are all growing well.
The cabbage and strawberries were damaged from a hailstorm on the 10th, but I'm hopeful they'll pull through. I guess I need to look into how to protect plants from storms...
I will plant a second batch of lettuce and spinach this weekend so that we'll have a second crop once the first is harvested.
The space for the tomatoes and zucchini is all cleared and I found a cool, fairly inexpensive trellis on sale at Lowes's which I'll try to work into the budget. The tomatoes, zucchini and peppers won't get planted until early May.
