Spring Bee Hiving Moon
One rejection showed up in my mailbox already from this morning’s submissions. That’s quick turnaround. Unfortunately. Still, no submissions, no rejections. No submissions, no sale. So, on we go.
I did get the beets and carrots planted: Early Blood and Golden beets, Danvers and Paris Market carrots. The vegetable growing season has begun. One of the more frustrating gardening chores is planting carrot seeds. They’re tiny, stick to each other and your fingers and go in 1/4″ apart. Right. Sort of. As close to that as possible, but sometimes multiple seeds fall and have to be spread out. If you’ve done it, you know what I mean. Beets are larger, an irregular sphere with studs, easy to grip and they go in 2 inches apart. That is doable. Now we wait.
Oh. I did clean up the surface of the bed, then spread the nitrogen, rake it in, then level the bed before hand. So I was out there a couple of hours, maybe a bit more. It’s been a productive day so far.
