Tag Archives: Lettuce

Persimmon, fenugreek, borage, viola, bee balm, cosmos.

The lettuce and radishes are coming up but nothing from the spinach, peas or beets yet. (6/7 the peas never made a showing)

It didn’t freeze, only got in the mid 30s as far as I can tell.

Started some old seed in half a leek float tray. Fugie Persimmon, Fenugreek, Lemon Bergamot, Viola and Borage.
(6/7 still nothing from the persimmon, everything else is up and doing fine)

Purchased some “Candy Stripe” Cosmos and Summer Savory from the Health Food Store in Florence. Both were broadcast in a small container, moist soil and plastic wrapped. This and the float tray went on the back porch

Beans, spinach, lettuce, dill, tomatoes.

Took out batch #2 of beans, tilled and planted spinach, buttercrunch and black seeded simpson lettuce and scarlet globe and cherry belle radishes where they were. There were enough beans for a meal not counting the ones too large to harvest. Batch 3 is coming along nicely. (6/7/05 this was too late for starting lettuce seed. Nothing happened before it was too cold.)

I cleaned out the dill and the weeds in that area to make room for the grape tomatos that are taking over. I found couple of dozen young dill volunteers about 2″-6″ tall. We shall have fresh dill till frost
