2025 gardens what are you growing?

[fishfood]

Finally started most of the seeds that need to be started early. I'll start off some lettuce leaf and romaine in a few weeks along with the swiss card and some kale.

So currently I'm trying to germinate
For peppers
9 jalapeños
6 red
6 green
6 sweet banana
3 hot Hungarian

Tomatoes
6 beefsteak
6 bushsteak
6 Roma

Others
6 broccoli
6 Brussel spouts

Will be getting a few nets this year to protect the vegetables that the bug's usually get to and keep the cabbage moth off them. Usually I don't grow them if they are to susceptible but I'll invest in some netting.

As always I'll be expanding another 11 ft by 15 or 20ft to one of the 3 beds . We built a new shed last year so Im putting a herb bed in front of it.

What are you starting or started ?
Any new expansions


Seeds that I collected from the garden last years crop green beans, kale,swisschard red and green ,leaf and romaine lettuce.

Potatoes? I got the starter potatoes last year but they are expensive. Going to try and pick up a few bags within the week and sprout them in the garage window. Red and another kind maybe yellow.

Going to see if the nursery that I use will find me some of the purple potatoes as well.

Any problems with starting your own potatoes from the grocery store?

It's been years since I have put in a vegetable garden.

I did plant 3 Haskap plants and 5 Blueberry plants and they will be 3 years old this year.
Last year I also planted 2 blackberry (Boysenberry) vines.

All should take off this year. The blueberry plants were set back one season because I accidentally gave them to much Aluminum Sulphate burning them, I had to reduce the soil PH quite a bit but forgot that I already had sprinkle some the week before when it was raining..

If I do put a vegetable garden this year, I am going to try a straw bale garden.
I will probably use 6 bales.

I will probably plant String beans, Carrots, Lettuce, spinach, onions, Mellon and 1 or two squash.

I also plan to get some Sunchoke tubers from a friend of mine.

Two weeks ago I started my peppers, both hot and sweet varieties. They have only just started sprouting. I keep them inside a grow room I built in the basement.

At that same time I started asparagus, beets, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, leeks, lettuces, and spinach.

Onions were started back in February.

Everything has sprouted and is showing good growth. As of last week I placed all the cool hardy plants in my cold frames outside. It's dropped down to minus 7 a couple of nights and it hasn't bothered the plants at all.

I'll probably start my tomatoes and eggplant in the next week, and probably another batch of lettuces.

If this nice weather keeps up, I'll have the peas planted outside also.

It's that busy time. The orchard has been pruned same as the vineyard. The higher levels of snow allowed the bunnies to chew up more than they usually do. Raspberries took a good hit. I'm slowly cleaning up as I go.

In the flower garden I've noticed that the snow drops have bloomed, the daffodils are 2 inches tall already. It's nice to see things moving along.

Happy gardening

Unfortunately all 6 are worked into the plans already.

I started exactly what I needed putting multiple seeds in each tray for maximum success. Whatever doesn't pop up I'll be starting again. Last year I only had to restart the banana when half didn't pop out.

Have just under 1200 sqf to fill and that's not including the herb bed I'll be putting in..
