Frugal Upstate's Garden Journal

This is my online Garden Journal. I am tracking not only what I plant and when, but the techniques I try and wether they succeed or fail. Posting here will be much more sporadic than my daily posts over at Frugal Upstate

6-20

Thinned out the chard to 4 per sq foot. The thinnings made up a large bowl of sauted greens for dinner, as well as a few in the salad.

Pulled up 2 more heads of buttercrunch lettuce, and all of the measly spinach crop (must get that in MUCH earlier next year).

Planted carrots around the 2 back peppers in the second raised bed. Still need to interplant some crops around the eggplant and cabbage that went into the future asparagus bed.

picked about 15 more pea pods. The kids ate them!

No sign of germination for the scallions or the kohlrabi yet.

Started throwing scraps in the second compost pile. That will be the pile for the rest of the summer (dh will continue to mulch around the pumpkins and the squash planted into the old compost pile with grass clippings)
