Things Are Growing

Spinach

We have several beds of wonderful-looking spinach.  In the center of the picture above are two beds of it.  One’s a smooth leaf (Space), and the other’s a savoyed (Tyee).  Both taste really good!

The lettuce and scallions are also going gang-busters.  In the picture below, recent lettuce transplants are to the far left (the little plants in a nice grid pattern), ready-to-cut lettuce is next as you move to the right (with lots of bare spots where tranplants succumbed to the fierce winds we got right after they went in the ground), then come radishes, and finally scallions.  To the far right is a bed that was harvested last week.  Since the picture was taken this morning, it has been prepped to receive more lettuce transplants:

Here’s the swiss chard in the center two beds (the right-hand bed had very spotty germination in the right-most row), with spinach to the left and carrots to the right:

Here are two beds (3 rows each) of beets:

And here’s a (relative) close-up of the carrots:
