1. February in the Garden
It’s happening. Days are getting longer, chickens are returning to production after a winter break, and life is springing up in the garden. Flowers are sprouting from recent rain, cover crops are ready to turn under. There is nothing stagnant about the garden here in So Cal.
We’ve started seeds indoors for corn, millet, onions and black beans. We just seeded a tray of heirloom tomatoes, peppers and eggplant. It may feel early still, but spring and warmer weather will be here before you know it. Read below for some helpful hints to getting started indoors this season.
We recently announced the launch of my new book website, GardeningforGeeksBook.com. There you will find information on the advice-packed Gardening For Geeks and where to pre-order it. Get it now while prices are discounted.
Happy Gardening,
Christy
