Leek and onions have been going since December 17. A one time experiment for me, I think.

I also have a few beetroots (also since December - another experiment), the heavy peppers and the heavy carrots going. The heavy parsnips all failed to germinate. All still 24 hrs a day under growing lights.

Next week I will plant the kohlrabi, swede and tall corn seeds.

Construction of the new giant vegetable greenhouse is under way (slowly but surely). The tomato and pepper greenhouse has been moved to another plot with better soil.

The corn and sunflower cage got damaged beyond repair this winter and will not be rebuilt.

The large poly tunnel was badly torn by winter storms and has been repaired as good as possible with special poly tape. I needed 75 feet of the stuff to repair all the ripped and torn areas.
