Filed Under Garden Desk, Vegetable Garden 

Weather: 

The weather was perfect this weekend.  Mid sixties - calm.

Plantings:

Directed Sowed - 10 beets.

Started Seed - Zucchini and butterstick squash (2 each)

Activities:

Earlier this week, I purchased green/red peppers, jalapleno  and herbs - parsley, sage and oregano. They are in the greenhouse until the weather warms up a little more.  Last frost date is 5/15.

Cleaned the greenhouse up.  Swept out the garage.  Set up the outdoor sink.  Watered the strawberries.

Miscellaneous Notes & Observations:

The spinach and snap peas are starting to come up.  The garlic is doing well as is the onions.
