First Planting

This weekend Jennie and I planted 5 SWAMP boxes. She planted lettuce, arugula and spinich. These were in the small 10-gal boxes and are inside against south facing windows.

I planted shallots and everbearing strawberries in 10 gallon boxes and radishes (both the round red kind and the long white kind) in a 14 gal. box. All three of these are outside against a south facing wall. I have some question about planting everbearing strawberries. I believe that these don't produce as much fruit as the regular strawberries. We will see. I expect that the radishes will produce early and be replaced by a fall crop like broccoli in June or so.

I plan to start some tomato plants from seed indoors this week. I will plant several of the non-hybrid types whose seed I can save.
