Nice, drthor!
What variety are those tomatoes in your pic?
STARTING OUR SPRING GARDEN STAGE 4
Last night, I trimmed some drooping leaves off my tomatoes that survived the cold snap (all survived!), trimmed off a few onion buds, and saw that the garlic had started to send up shoots, so we'll be harvesting garlic soon!
My onions are getting nice and fat and should be bulbing soon. The neighbor's cat has been using my onion rows as his sleeping spot. :/
Hey, Steph!
Looking very, very nice! I believe the garlic shoots are edible and are considered a delicacy, so check that out before you toss them!
Yes, you can roast them in olive oil, but we tried that last year and didn't like them all that much. I might let one bulb go to seed just so I can see the size difference in the size of the bulbs produced.
Over on the Recipes forum, Darius mentioned they make great "pickles"
Today's garden job was to build & fill 2 raised beds 4x12. These are where my corn is going to go, probably next week. I still have 1 4x8 bed left to build. That one is going to run alongside the fence in the front yard. It will contain sweet potatoes. I kind of figured no one would steal sweet potatoes since their all underground & it would be too much work to dig them up!!
