Howdy all. You say weather, I say it is wet here. Well not quite, so far today. There were porncasts of much rain today and tomorrow. Now they aren’t as certain. What I do know is, it was great for planting potatoes and onions today. I had tilled the one potato bed before, and went out to plug some seed potatoes in the bed. Well, it can really only hold maybe 18-20 potatoes. I had about 3 dozen. So, I tilled one of the beds back by the fence, where I really wanted just flowers this year.

This bed got just around 20 potatoes — A couple weren’t all that impressive, so I doubled them next to another.

Most of the overflow potatoes went back there. Like 10 or so.

As for the onion sets, well, I had to do them too. Fortunately, they fit in just these two beds.

Most in here.

And this bed got the bulk of the onion sets. OOPs, I didn’t get a picture of the raised bed to the left. The last couple of potatoes and onions ended up in there. Along with one confused carrot that was growing from last year.

If the weather holds up tomorrow, I may do the flower seeds out back in the beds by the fence. I let the strawberry plants stretch over a few of the beds last year. I’ll just put some seeds in those beds with the strawberries, and if they grow and blossom, great. I would really like some sunflowers by that fence.

I should wait for the lawn team to do the spring cleanup before doing those planter beds because of all the leaves and little branches that gathered there over the winter. But, we will see how much energy I have.

Out front, my first spring flowers have finally had enough warmth to pop out. They look like they’ll be very pretty.

That’s it for now. Take advantage of any breaks in the weather you get to Enjoy Life
