While most of the seeds I’m starting this year need to be planted directly in the garden, I started some onions, tomatoes, and herbs and several varieties of Marigolds under lights. They’ve done surprisingly well and the cool weather tolerant plants are out in the garden mini-greenhouse hardening off, and they go in another mini- greenhouse in the garage at night.
Spring comes with a huge reorganization of the potting bench and garden items area in the garage.
I'm getting all ornaments, trellises and shelving out into the side yard.
I'm expanding my "vegetable garden" this year 13 feet into the perennial area of the yard. It's hard to tell in the photos because it's early on, but this will give me a much longer central bed for vegetables only, and allow me to move all of my shade perennials into this area along the sides. The gardens will be removed from the larger yard area, creeping charlie and various other out of control weedy things will go poof, and the grassy area will be a nice play area for the dogs (working on their Frisbee and other skills) and make a space where we can set up croquet or badminton, perhaps.
