Updates and soil temperature data link

One more gladiolus has come out! Unexpected and exciting!

Have started cutting spinach leaves young, leaving just a few on the plant so it can grow. Learnt from last time's experience that the leaves can grow large, mature and not too tasty if left on the plant for long.


Potato plants are growing steadily now, as are the peas and onions.

Have started exposing the tomato and pepper plants at home to the colder weather outside to harden them off. Plan to transplant them end of this month. Also started feeding them some Miracle-Gro organic plant food and spacing them out some more to keep them well-ventilated, as suggested by friends.

No news of beans or cilantro yet.

And finally, a useful resource: Soil temperature data can be found here.
