Seeds are sprouting all over!

Time for an update. Almost all of my seeds sprouted indoors in peat pots have come up. All of the tomatoes have sprouted and only a couple of the "long mix" peppers have not broken ground. Tomatoes came up first and some have been visible for weeks now. Peppers took longer but they are now mostly making their appearance. I take these outside so they get some sun every day.

The seeds in the whiskey barrel have all sprouted and I have thinned them a bit. I'll collect some early thinnings as they get bigger to add to salads.

My real embarrassment was when I checked the side garden along the house. There is some oak leaf that must have gone to seed and has sprouted. The leaves are about 5" long and it is far beyond the stuff I have planted! That spot gets too dry later in the season, but I'll have to allow some more lettuce go to seed this year so I get more volunteers!

And the rhubarb continues to grow. The roots that I didn't transplant are now much bigger and nearly ready to start harvest but all are doing well.

Lots of spring flowers as well.

Oops! Be sure that the coals are cold before sifting ash from the fire pit into a plastic wheel barrow.
