Today is beginning very cool (in the 60's) with bright blue skies and a light breeze. It's going to a high in the mid 80's.
I probably did too much yesterday as my joints are letting me know but I want to plant the tomatoes this morning. We got the beds ready last night with additional soil and filler. I had to wait until my son was home because the bags of soil were too heavy for me to lift!!! (Ah...the joys of getting old!)
I did get the main upstairs room cleaned up. The starter seeds did not make it during the three days of 90 plus temperatures early in May. I plan on starting seeds again but this time in my new greenhouse. Speaking of which, here's a couple pictures...
It's about 7.5 feet by 4 feet. You can see how many shelves there are. And even with the doors and windows open, there are screens to keep out bugs!
I have it anchored to the deck on three sides. The glass top small table next to the greenhouse is really heavy so I may anchor the final corner to it.
As I said before, it was easy to put together and the frame is solid. I did need a bit a help putting on the cover but once on, I was able to tie it unto the frame.
I purchased seeds yesterday but none of the stores had spinach seeds so I had to order them...interesting!
Today, however with the exception of planting in the raised beds, I will be working in the house...basically my studio which is extremely messy. I haven't unpacked the craft items I took with me on vacation either. And I'm feeling a need for some craft time today.
So do you have a garden...even a window box...or a couple of herbs in the kitchen window? I love gardening, even if it's only a pot or two. I bet if you raised a few herbs you would find how much you enjoy it also. Pick up a couple at a nursery when you're out this week and give gardening on a small scale a try...
Have an amazing day...
Talk with you tomorrow...
