Snowed last Saturday--82 degrees today. April! Transplanted another half row of tomatoes and one of chilies. Planted some corn, squash, and beans. We'll see how that turns out. Ate spinach three times this week--as salad, in a fruit smoothy, and in a quiche. Spinach gets a bad rap. I love the stuff. It is better that lettuce as lettuce and more nutritious. Of course I'm not sure what that stuff is you buy in the can. Also picked lettuce and radishes. Had to cut vent in greenhouse as the plants were complaining about the heat. Broccoli is growing like crazy.
Monday 23rd: Reached 87 degrees today. Made some shades out of hot windows for transplanting. Finished planting the row of chilies and the row of tomatoes. First batch of tomatoes are struggling. Should have hardened more I guess. Peas are blooming but no peas yet.
Wednesday 25th: Hot again. Planted another row each of tomatoes and chilies. Peas are starting to show pods. First batch of transplanted chilies are taking right off.
Thursday 26th: Cooled off. Tiny bit off rain. Mostly wind and clouds. First potato came up. No others have followed yet. Transplanted some ever-bear strawberries.
I am happy to hear that you are using spinach in smoothies. I have a Green Smoothie book that you should look at. There are some great recipes out there. :)
