June 13 garden club
Boy, what a hot day to work in the garden! Nevertheless, we had a very productive afternoon.
We harvested the rest of the spinach (out of greenhouse bed 1) for the school lunch program, pulled out the old plants. Lots of the spinach looked great, but we discovered some aphids on some, and some leaf miners on others. We then transplanted some cucumbers, since we didn't have great germination of the seeds we planted- only two had come up. We also planted a zucchini plant.
We transplanted basil into greenhouse bed 2, where there are already tomatoes and parsley. This will be the "pizza bed".
We inter planted strawberry plants in garden bed 4. A few radishes were eaten in the process!
We also weeded garden bed 1, leaving the peas that had germinated, as well as the sunflower volunteers and garlic volunteers, and planted some more peas.
