Gotta wait a bit longer for last frost to really get going where I’m at. But definitely getting pumped up and getting my root vegetables in!

I know what you mean! I'm still holding out on outdoor planting till that last frost hits. Luckily for you root vegetables can handle a frost. They're one of the few vegetables that can be started in the 40 degree weathers.

my flowers are just starting to hit that sapling(?) stage. Just pokin out of the ground [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Very excited for them to attract birds and bees for my cat to look at.

Very cool! I had a few crocus and daffodil pop up recently. Tulips are right behind them! Pretty stoked myself to see how beautiful the flowers turn out.
entertainment for the cat is always a plus! PLUS more bees = good!

Good for you! More you grow yourself, less dependent you are. And not to mention, lots of produce in the store is sprinkled with stuff, that prolong shelf life. Not so sure about prolonging our lives.
I'm growing all year around lettuce in my basement. Hydroponics. Homegrown veggies in the winter ;-)

I've been growing vegitables for some time, I do it pretty laidback no extreme PHing, moisture levels, lighting etc. I just never mentioned it.
I've always considered trying to grow a smaller plant such as leafy lettuces over the winter. Not sure I could properly maintain the tempature for them though. How forgiving is that?

Wow! that's an impressive haul! (Let me know how those jalapeno plants turn out! (my seeds didn't take))
I LOVE growing nightshade, rather peppers/tomatos. I really like the direction your garden is heading.
I'm also interested in how your berry plants turn out. In all honesty I tried to germinate some berry plants and I didn't have success. Bushes/Shrub berries usually don't fruit the first year but I'm certain you'll get strawberries this year and they'll be sweet!
Thanks for sharing! ^,^
