That would be the summer gardening season here in the moody and capricious Pacific Northwest.
Today I:
- removed the black permeable covering from my garden
- turned over all the surface dirt, down to a 3-4 inch depth
- re-arranged one of the two borders (lined with these funky concrete cylinders: formerly laid horizontally along the edge, now sunk into the ground at a 30° angle, leaning on each other)
- started some tomato seeds (ultra-early types) and a full packet of Kong sunflowers, all in those little peat pellets that allow transplanting without exposing the roots.
I have some more seeds to get, since I have a pretty good amount of space to fill (180 sq ft or so). And the tomatoes don’t count against it, since they are moving to a new location this year.
Sunny and bright today (deceptively so. Here’s what my local weather station registers:
Temp:46 Wind:3 Barometer:29.95s Humidity:70% High:48 Low:36)
