a trip to Ohio revealed what I should have already known...I am highly allergic to tree pollen. Cleveland is a couple of weeks behind us, in the gardening calendar, so i got to deal with high pollen-twice! but a chance to see more pears and cherries and redbuds and tulip magnolias in bloom?" ahhhhhh.
the garlic has spring up to nearly a foot in height. the apple trees have budded out, the onion transplants look fabulous, we are eating green salads. a month ahead of schedule, but I am not complaining. tempted to start the squash and cukes and sweet potatoes( the slips look good) but i will wait.
tomatoes are happily growing under lights;peppers too.
the only groan so far is that the peas did not sprout well. at 95 degrees for 4 days-this is the hottest April on record, I guess they just didn't like it much.what does grow will still help the ground!
