Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Gardeners report - 2011
Yesterday I went out with the cultivator and turned the soil in the garden - it was hard work but I felt invigorated afterwards - like I could feel the energy of mother earth rising out of the tilled ground. I harvested the last of the winter kale and collards, I might put some more in today or tomorrow, and I'm debating if it's too early to sow lettuce. I suppose I could give it a try and just resow if nothing comes up. Today or tomorrow I need to get some compost - I'll use what I have in my compost heap but it won't be nearly enough, and I'll also get some organic fertilizer. I'm sooooo looking forward to spring veggies, lots of light in the evenings to putter around in the dirt, bring on the Merry Month of May when it really gets going - oh yes!
