Snap and Snow Update
1/28/08
It’s been about 2 weeks since I planted and most of the snap peas and snow peas are up! I had to replant a couple of “missing” plants, but most have unfurled their first leaves. By the end of the week, they’ll be climbing the trellis!
The green onions are doing quite well also, peeking up and looking rather wispy.
I put the cantaloupe, zucchini and cucumber seeds in the ground yesterday. Yes, I’m probably three weeks early, but if they come up and freeze, well, I’ll just try again.
I found some new sort of maggoty looking worm thing–orange to brown in color–that I spent a lot of time digging up and killing. No idea what it is, but it definitely looked unsavory and likely to eat the roots of my plants.
Jalepeno seeds will probably go in sometime this week. I may just buy the plants because they really should be started indoors. There just wasn’t room on the windowsill what with the 11 tomato plants that are growing there…
