Seedling Progress & Snow

The cauliflower and broccoli are starting to get their second set of leaves. More of the peppers have sprouted (none of the banana peppers yet). Also some basil, parsley, thyme, sage, buttercrunch lettuce, marjoram, and more romaine is sprouting. There isn't much activity from the celery and onions yet. Luckily I bought onion sets so if the onion seeds don't sprout it won't be a big deal. Menards didn't have red onion sets  so I got white and yellow.

A few of the Sweet 100 and Mortgage Lifter tomatoes came up over the weekend.

Hopefully the weather will cooperate this week and melt the snow so  can prepare the raised beds in the next week or so. Unless something drastic happens it doesn't look like the salsify will get planted on April 1st as planned. It may be closer to the 10th with the peas since there's still about 6 - 9 inches of snow on the raised beds.

An Early Girl and a few Roma tomatoes sprouted today.
