Will have to start asking the AA women for there pantyhose, that should get me beat up a few times! Seriously worth a try, I have no idea what a pair of pantyhose cost!

[Kristin Meredith]

A lot of women don't wear them anymore.  They aren't that expensive, I will try to remember to get a couple of pair in the store when I am in.

[Brushpopper]

They said that's how they stored them as children.  Keeping them separated and in a cool dry place is the key apparently.  They have to be hung up so they don't touch anything.  I forgot to mention that for some reason.  They might make the room smell like onions though.  I like the smell personally.

[Bar-B-Lew]

Sorta like the new Burger King social distancing burger that has extra onions on it

[Bentley]

I see they are a 90-100 day growing onion.  So I should be looking to harvest the 1st 18 around 3rd week of July.  Well, lesson learned, plant them much later next year.  We have warm weather till usually mid September.  Dry is not an issue, but cool is.  Should plow through the 1st 18 no problem.  I would venture to guess they will last in the pantry a couple of weeks too!

making some progress, but everything except the sunflowers are behind from years past. 

Hops are decorative, sunflowers are decorative, but I think add a lot to the experience of gardening.

Sugar snap peas, pole beans, raspberries, asparagus(new this year), blue berries, pumpkins, squash, zucchini, cucumbers, onions, lots of tomatoes, tomatillo,  and then the peppers inside the greenhouse.

will update again when things start maturing, but before harvest time. 

[Kristin Meredith]

Looking good DK and so much ahead of our stuff.

[Bentley]

Your stuff is way ahead of us.  Are you North, South, East or West?

[dk117]

Pacific Northwest.   Vancouver Washington.   My strawberries are way behind.   Not sure what’s wrong.   Will just be fun to have fresh strawberries in a month.  Whatever else I could I started in the greenhouse .

[Bentley]

Well, Spring will be over here in 4 days, so I expect the stuff that is lagging to take off.  Supposed to be an average to above June for temperature.  I think our last 70° day is Monday and then it is all mid 80's for the next 2 weeks, along with a 91° on Weds.

The stuff from seed seems to be really lagging.  Carrots, Beets & Jalapenos.  Also the Melons & Squash.

[Bentley]

All herbs doing well except the Rosemary, maybe it is a slower growing plant then I know?  Any know why some of the parsley would get yellow and die?  Maybe to much water.

[Bentley]

Tomatoes taking off, Bell Peppers lagging!  Onions just keep chugging along!  And the cucumbers are starting to come up.

[Bentley]

And the Kentucky 31 grass has come in nicely, a few bare spots, but pretty happy with 2nd cut.  And even the Rivera Bermuda decide to come out of dormancy for good!

A little garden fly over...
