MY GARDEN IS STARTING FOR THE SEASON
ITS FINALLY SPRING ENOUGH TO START GROWING IN MY GARDEN BED. I ADDED SOME GOOD SOIL FOR THIS YEAR AND STAYED AWAY FROM THE BLACK KOW COMPOST. I WAS VERY DISSATISFIED WITH IT LAST YEAR. THERE WERE SO MANY CLUMPS IN IT I HAD A DIFFICULT TIME BREAKING UP THE CLODS.

My 2023 Veggie Garden Ideas
Its that time again. Gardening is in my future. I have a raised 4' by 8' garden bed which is calling me.
Today I ordered garden soil mix and veggie and herb plants. I was nicely surprised that our local Home Depot delivers. I was wondering with whom I could make plans for chauffeuring me to get plants. Now that concern is behind me.
The soil mix is expected today but the plants themselves not until the 12th. That's just fine since these plants are usually transplanted outdoors no earlier than Memorial Day. Its been a very warm spring so far here is southwestern Maine without any frosts for days. I think I may be able to transplant my tomatoes and some others before then. As long as I watch out for any sneaky frosts and being prepared with covers for said plants.
