Spring has Sprung!

Sorry for the delay in posting, but lately I've been nigh-on obsessed with getting my garden started. Only recently has it been warm enough for me to do any actual planting, so I've been doing that and have more planned. Here is what I'm planting:
Veggies
Federle Tomatoes (roma type)
Hillbilly Potato leaf Tomatoes (yellow tomato)
Brussel Sprouts
Lacinato Kale
Leeks
Cayenne Peppers
Red Sweet Bell Peppers
Spinach
Dragon Carrots
Gherkin Cucumbers
Green Beans
October Beans (shell type)
Onions
Potatoes
Turnips
Herbs
Basil (Purple, Thai and Genovese)
Greek Oregano
Culinary Sage
Comfrey
Thyme
Bronze Fennel
Mammoth Dill
Cilantro
Italian Parsley
Calendula
White Sage
Wormwood


Pretty ambitious, huh? If things go well, I should be able to put a real dent in our monthly grocery bills. Wish me luck!

  1. Afternoon. Think I found your blog from coldantler's blog, but I am not sure.

    Quite ambitious all that planting. Are you putting seeds right in the ground? I started some seed couple of weeks ago and now I have sprouts about 3 inches high. Not sure how deep to plant them. So far just tomatoes and peppers. Going to sow some cilantro and use a litter container turned on its side and filled with soil. My first attempt to try any of this.

    We are in SE Alabama. I have a blot creationsbylsm if you want to look. Haven't posted in awhile.

    Any advice on my planting would be appreciated.
    Thank you in advance for any advice.
