Downriver 2023 - Garden Adventures

[Downriver]

Well, it's March again and about time to start this Glog as well. My intent is to cover all things garden, sans peppers. Peppers may appear here occasionally, but they will be the star in the Downriver 2023 - Pepper Time Glog.

So, as in years past, I've done nothing to prep the garden this year. The weather forecast for the rest of March isn't looking to hot, literally, so it's gonna be at least a few weeks before I can make any meaningful progress. Here's what I'm starting with. I'm not too worried - I have until at least mid-May before it'll be safe to plant out.

More to come.

Nice space you got there Rick. Your garden is like a sleeping beast!

So, here's the list of this year's tomatoes, hopefully. The seeds for a few are over 10 years old, so wish me luck. Planted them yesterday. Generally speaking, I plan on growing 2-3 of each. We'll see how things develop.

We had a beautiful day here last week, and I was able to weed, fertilize and mulch the blueberries. Now they're ready to EXPLODE with berries this year, lol. They're just starting to show leaf buds, so it'll be a little while.

I prepped a row for Sugar Snap Peas a few days ago. I didn't plant yet because they're predicting freezing temps the next couple days. Hopefully I'll get them planted by this weekend.

Now I need to prep the raised beds. Have some collards and cabbage started and they need to get planted out.

Looks like busy times for you in the garden right now, DR!
