We have been really lucky with the chard this year.\u00a0 One little pot of starts and so far 3 dinners from it, and still lots more out there.\u00a0 Wish I had planted more brocolli rabe too, but have been having some troubles with it bolting.\u00a0 Perhaps starting the rabe indoors a month earlier, and getting it in the ground in April instead of May would have made all the difference.\u00a0 Will try to get a fall crop later in the season, start seeds next month?\u00a0<\/p>\n
The carrots are coming along but still have lots of time left to go.\u00a0 The radishes are doing great and I\u00a0have already eaten a few on salads.\u00a0 The fingerling & Yukon gold potatoes are doing well, but I need to get out and mound around them today.\u00a0 I hae been most excited about the lettuce this year.\u00a0 Granted, when the weather gets real hot it will all likely bolt, but so far I have been able to grow my own lettuce for the past month and new additional crops have been planted for continued harvest potential.<\/p>\n
The corn has been a complete and total bust this year.\u00a0 I think the robins must have stolen the seed.\u00a0 I have started another package of Early Sunglow (63days), in flats on the deck. It probably won’t have enough time, but we’ll give it a go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
