I've really been getting into gardening recently, and as the days are getting warmer, the itch to plant delicious things for my family has grown stronger. I'm trying to use this as a way to document what I've done so far, so that I don't accidentally dig up the potato bed like I did last year...(oops), or halfway through the season, turn to my husband and say "Huh...what is this plant? Did we plant this?!"
Bed #1 has a TON of spring onions. I lopped off the early seed buds and ate them with eggs. The rest I'm letting grow for the many scallion pancakes I'm hoping to cook this spring/summer.
Bed #2, I planted some arugula, which has just started to sprout. I have been lazy and haven't dug out the plant labels yet, so I stuck some sticks at the head of the row to show these rows were intentional.
I did plant some potatoes, and put some dead grass on top for mulching.
I also sowed some arugula into a pot (so I could use up a seed packet), which I will likely need to thin soon.
I planted some garlic, which I sprouted with water. I am hopeful these will do well.
Thyme from last year overwintered and came back! Most of the other herbs did not make it. The mint did, as well as lavender, though:
