Yesterday I went to the field to see how everything was progressing. Everything has started to sprout! The watermelon is looking much better, all of the gourds are up now and the cucumbers have started to expand. The carrots and potatoes are just poking through about 15% of the total but in the next week I expect them to all come up.
We have had some rain but because it has been spotty, the field hasn’t had any since I planted it almost 2 weeks ago… We have been watering it (me and my aunt/cousins) and it has been doing wonders for it.
My own garden is doing very well, I picked a ton of snow peas on Monday and will have to go pick more today, they are not a forgiving vegetable if you let them go that extra day.
I also plan on trying to take all of the kale off tomorrow but that will depend on a few factors. We are supposed to get more extreme hot weather and don’t want it to degrade anymore in quality.
The bok choy is done, the last few plant went to seed and the earwigs infested them and pretty much ate them. At least they ate all the good parts that hadn’t gone to seed.
