Got the first seedling transplants in today!

This is on March 5th, which is before I usually start the seeds indoors!! This winter has been incredibly mild here.

Almost all brassicas, but also some lettuce, as well as a bunch of leeks. I first harvested the kohlrabi, though they weren't very large (I left the smallest, to see if it will grow), and the inner row of scallions, to make room for the seedlings - a bunch of leeks, 4 lettuce, 2 red dragon napa, 2 red streaked mizuna, 4 fioretto cauliflower, 7 kolibri and 2 grand duke kohlrabi, 2 kokatsuna, and 1 senposai. I also planted 4 of a cauliflower mix in the ground - things that did not do well, both for germination %, and growth, so I am not holding out much hope for those.

I would think everything will take off like gang busters given the day length and sun angle we’re at now. Looking good!

Nice stuff, PH! For whatever reason I didn't grow any kohlrabi this fall. Your plants will be cozy in that tunnel.
