@Paulo Munera in the past id just bring the tray of saplings outside in the morning and bring them in in the evening. Are you planting anything else exciting next week?

@Paulo Munera I’ve been wanting to try potatoes. I recently saw one of my favorite gardeners’ video about planting them in such a simple and fast way I thought I’d give it a go, but haven’t sat down to read up on it in our local context yet.
Rain yes!!
I feel like the next meetup should be a rain dance party 😆

I’m about it, although I don’t know any moves :D
Need seeds
Does anyone have extra seeds? My initial planting didn't work, so I've used the game. Got some great soil, a small indoor green house and lights. Now I need seeds. Also, where is a good place to buy seeds? Thanks everyone!

What sort of seeds do you need? I have a bunch but they are variously old. Doesn’t mean they are useless but their germination successful goes down a bit every year, is my understanding. Which explains why out of 6 Jalapeño seeds I have one poking out.
What Are You Up To?
Now that Spring has officially begun with summer temperatures, what are y’all up to in your gardens? And what’s your favorite thing to see around your garden this time of year? Me I’m still slowly cleaning up the wind storm mess, finally putting down mulch around our garden beds that’s been sitting exposed dirt for 5 months (Got the mulch at Ewing if anyone’s curious. The delivery to Taft/Drake is 110$) and trying to decide on which berry bushes to add this year. So far I’m leaning toward another red currant and a blackberry. My favorite thing around the garden is the cherry blossoms buzzing with bees. It’s the bees knees… yeah alright I’ll see myself out.

@Brytne Greenough have you got the chives and onions outside in a garden plot?

@Brytne Greenough I love chives on scrambled eggs. I find that there really aren’t any absolutes in gardening. There are rules, and every time there’s an exception.
Time For Thatching?
How long do you wait until lawn thatching? Especially this year that the weather has been traitorously warm and free of rain, I’m almost inclined to start now.

thanks Paulo. I’ll hold off on it. Gotta contain that enthusiasm. In terms of lawns, I agree. I think if we manage to get rid of HOAs, we’ll see a return of polyculture lawns.

My reach frequently exceeds my grasp. And that's ok.
