Do to a busy life (both good and bad stuff) I had a bit of a late start planting and sowing seeds indoors.
But today cut the grass (which was knee high 😅) and planted a courget plant. Some weeding in the beds (I did it weekly luckily) and looks much nicer.
Tomorrow or Monday the tomatoes and cucumbers will be planted. After that most seeds I have can be direct sow from now on.

Props to the pallet collar raised beds, industrial agriculture!
ok I thought that was duct tape
The season is long. A little bit every year and before long you will have all the infrastructure in place for epic harvests
Looks great.
If you plan on sowing carrots, be mindful of the spacing. I just learned this year what “thinning carrots” means and why it should be done. I think I’m just gonna eat carrots leaves this year.
I just spread carrot seeds randomly in. And as they grow pick ones that are too close to the others, that way I am getting nice baby carrots and get a longer harvest, carrots should also be able to stay in over winter too,
This is exactly how I plant carrots, lol. How cold are your winters? Our carrots are kinda funky year two. It also seems like they’re prioritizing making seeds over making a nice carrot. We also have a ton of wild carrots that come up so flowers = pull it.
That’s exactly what they’re doing. Carrots don’t bolt til their second year. I let a few get huge one year and the next I got like a pound of seeds off them. Thought I’d hit the jackpot. Found out the hard way why you don’t collect seeds from F1’s
I see some nasturtium planted in with your brassica, there. Any other interplanting?
I did sow some marigolds and tagetes inbetween plants. The tomatoes will be planted together with Basil.
I planned to make 1 pallet bed for only flowers to attract pollinators. But don’t know yet when I will have the time and energy.
keep it going, keep it strong
