well, spring has yet to be, here in utah. and my garden shows it. i have some onions, spinach, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, radish, peas and potatoes coming up- but they are small. lettuce should almost be ready to harvest by now- and mine are about 2 inches tall. so i wonder what kind of 'salad' crop we'll even have this year. my plan is to get the full garden in on saturday. the beans, tomatoes, squash, cucumber, zucchini, melons- all of it. then we'll just pray for warmer weather.
i was super excited today to find (in wal-mart of all places) some heirloom tomato plants. i've been looking all over for them. i got some pink brandywine and yellow pear. i hope to be able to find more, but i'll be planting plenty of hybrids also. it goes against everything i believe in- but the fact is heirlooms are hard to grow. and if i want to have at least a decent tomato crop, i've got to plant some hybrids.
