With it being so nice I decided to pull a couple soil samples today. Ground was surprising dry. I know what is to come. Spring rains, cool cloudy weather and an itch to get the ground turned and warming in that early patch before the plants get too big. Generally not a problem for the late patch. In order to keep myself occupied I decided to give giant cabbage a go. Nothing too fancy. Just 6 plants grown hydroponically in an old lab refrigerator. No idea what I'm doing but if nothing else I can eat the things in a couple months if I decide to terminate them. The system setup can be lowered with growth and eventually moved to the outdoors. If they grow well I may move them to an enclosed room in the barn and keep them under lights.
