5 kinds of lettuce
How Does Your Garden Grow - early May
we're trying to keep up with production but most of our time is still being spent ..."setting things up" for efficient production... we've got lettuce to take to market this weekend but don't yet know if we'll have anything for the next weekend... lots of plants still need to go in the ground and lots of seeds still need to be started and lots of blue buckets still need dirt in them. and the trellising... hopefully we'll be able to get to that job before it's too late...

corner braces screwed into all 4 corners of the greenhouse
devised a removable wind break/deflector to be used on days of supper gusty winds
redneck camp stove in the bug out vehicle
tomato bed is getting started. the red plastic mulch is suppose to increase production and size of tomatoes
bus leveling pads built from found rock and creek stone/muck
salad bar lettuce
Basil
onions & scallions
green house learning curve: the shower drain rain catchment will collect debris and clog up so it needs to be cleared off occasionally
2nd year valerian
Strawberries
broccoli and mustard greens
concord grape and an edaname.. 2 of 4 grapes at the gazebo have life in them
purple basil
seedlings yet to be planted, given or sold
1 early girl, yellow gooseberrys, romas, purple bumble bees, solar flares, beef steaks and 1 sub arctic - tomato bed fully planted, now to work on trellising
some of the 80+ leaf lettuces getting a shower before market.
anyone want to meet us at the waffle hut at 5am?
we'll be off to market with 80+ heads of 5 varieties of lettuce, a few blue, dwarf and black kales, fresh oregano & sage and leftover seedlings

Guess I missed the 5 am Waffle Hut. Good luck at the farmer's market.

we missed it too. we actually had time to go but we didn't know that. the set up started an hour later than we thought it did.... sold out of lettuce and unloaded about 1/2 the seedlings.. pretty good day.
