I also planted a number of gourds including

I see now that it was foolish to start the gourds inside as they are growing quite fast and maybe root bound by the time I can put them outside but the heart wants what the heart wants…
My Spring garden will be planted tomorrow, weather permitting. This year I am trying
Cauliflower
Broccoli
Cabbage
Lettuce
Spinach
Arugula
Onions (bunching)
Chives
Carrots
Radish
Mustard Greens
Potatoes (Yukon Gold, Purple Majesty thus far)
As to where I am going to put all those tomato plants (2 per variety), I am not quite sure yet. I have began a campaign to borrow unused yards but I hope I have enough 5 gallon buckets to accommodate most of them. I will begin building The Cage tomorrow as well.
Stay tuned…
