The garden was going to wait this year while I train for a 7-day stage mountain bike race, but I couldn't bare the thought of not having certain vegetables I grew to depend on each season. This year more than ever, with the high prices of produce, several plants just had to be planted. You saw the 453-onion patch in an earlier post. Today, I planted 72 broccoli plants, mounded up the sweet potato rows for 50 slips coming in a couple weeks, and dug the potato trench for the Red Norland seed potato Donna's neighbors Andre and Diane so kindly shared. Donna and I will split them in the fall. The spinach is coming up and the kale over-wintered and is coming back. I love spring... I wish I was retired!

Looks like you are planting a nice, large garden! Good for you! If I didn't live in the middle of a big city I'd be doing the same thing...!

Lots of spamming. nice.
Two Q's for ya Chilli, what's with the straw? No weeds I know, but do ya plow it under or rake it off?
Is all seed equal? I can't get spinach to grow :-( I considered it could be the crappy store bought seed. Or my lack of savvy. Although I've grown spinach before, I get batches that just won't grow.
