I’m about to clear my cauliflower plants out of RB #1 . I put them out too late, so I’ll not harvest any good heads. But, I’ll harvest LOTS of huge leaves to make green smoothies, LOL! Once the cauliflower is gone, I can transplant the beets and collards that are growing inside under lights. The leaves are about 7” long, and they’re looking good. Hoping to grow beets year-round. Whistling

I've got broccoli heads forming, and, if it stays cool enough, I’ll get some nice heads. Hurray!

I have to build another raised bed, cause cabbages and early beets are still taking up space in RB #2. RB #3 is sitting and waiting for the tomatoes. Once I finish the second half of that Mittleider T-Frame and install it in place, they’ll go in, too.

Then, I’m gonna start some cukes, Kentucky Wonder Pole beans, watermelon, and squash seeds, and direct sow some beans -- crowders & purple hulls, lady cream peas. And, then, there are more collards and mustards ready to go in.

Busy, busy weekend… I tip my hat to you.
