Today I went shopping for a few more plants. I found 2! I will be adding the Tabasco pepper and a Jalapeno pepper to my pepper garden! I had to go ahead and get pruning shears too, I need to snip some dead branches from the blues. It is still too early here for a great selection of plants, I mean it is only March 12! I will still be getting brussel sprouts, thyme, and garlic. I am contemplating artichoke, but I will decided on that later.
My sprouts are all doing well. All of the lemon cucs are up, and a few of the basil. The lemon tree has 2 blossoms open! I will have to go pollinate them! Today was a bit cooler, so I did not take the plants outside. Tomorrow is to be a bit warmer, so I will then.
Yesterday I fertilized my blues and cranberries. My brother gave me a sample of Earth Tonic. *as always... PH is uber important with these! A gentleman that he works with is also growing blueberries here. He is using orchid feed when they are in bloom. I will try that and see! Last year I did not fertilize, being their first year. This tonic is supposed to be applied 3 times a week, so for me that is about every watering. I will post pictures of the sprouts tomorrow!
