Spring has Sprung...I hope.

Temperature has been in the 50's the last few days, and nice and sunny.  Overnight lows have still been dipping to around freezing, but, spring is getting close.  The daffodils and croci crocuses crocus have broken the surface, and the tulips aren't far behind. 

Having just moved in a week or so ago, I have not even thought about breaking ground for the garden, and I might not this year.  Realistically, I think I will embrace container gardening this year, although I might try to get raised beds set up in the next month or two. 

Whatever might happen in a month, I decided that the time had come to get something going.


From right to left I have spinach, swiss chard, kale, and then a 'lettuce mix'. 

Now, there is a chance I am too early, and we could still have a freeze.  If I am..oh well.  I lose a week or two, and throw a fresh batch of seeds in each pot.  It's not like I'm going to remember where I put the left over seeds by next spring anyways.
