I put out my pea seeds...for some reason I plant so late. The snow always puts me off. In Colorado, it seems we go from the end of winter to summer. Spring is filled with snowstorms and hail storms and all that fun stuff and then BAM, it's summer. It's a bit annoying, but we're making due. My lettuce and spinach haven't sprouted yet (I probably wouldn't sprout either with this kind of weather). Anyways, like I said with Easter, all of this will be gone by this afternoon. We're due for some nice weather and the temps are going to warm up nicely for the latter part of this week. My husband has been working so diligently on this backyard and rearranging our boxes and building some new ones. I am excited for when August arrives because that's when the garden looks its best!
I will update with more photos once the backyard is semi-dry. My husband is almost done! I've also sown some mustard and collard greens (yummy) and am still sprouting things indoors under lights. I need to start all my pumpkin and zucchini and squashes inside.
On the chick front, the little ladies are doing well! They are growing like crazy! My daughter's teacher actually bought chicks (since the incubator eggs did not hatch). So my daughter brought home one more Buff Orpington. That brings us up to nine chicks...like I said, I think a few of the girls aren't actually girls, but we'll wait and see.
I hope your weather is nicer than mine. I've been cruising the web and am living vicariously through your warm locations and wonderful gardens. I wish you happy gardening! Blessings!
