I just ordered drip watering supplies for my garden. I was going to get some end plugs too, but I guess I can just fold and tape or zip tie the ends to seal them off, right?

I'll make stakes out of heavy wire I have on hand. Emitter tube will water rows, inline dripper/emitters for squash, peppers and ???.

This is what's coming later this week... Did I miss anything?



This too.

I've never seen one of those. Cool! My son has one of these.

Red Baron bunching onions... Interesting! Hubby's favorite onion is Red Baron, and we prefer the big onions that we sometimes get.

Last year, a couple of the Red Barons made a topset, like Egyptian Walking Onions, and I planted those separately. They're looking very EWO-y. I'm hoping we like them and I can integrate them in to the EWO bed. Hubby is not a fan of EWOs; maybe he'll change his tune if he likes these.

I'm weirdly excited for them. I have a lot more seeds, when I pull up the one silly romaine lettuce in there I'll fill that spot with more.

I bought 3 bags (100 each) of Red Baron sets at the grocery. I did say they were hubby's favorite... Anyway, some of the sets are round, some are long. I made sure to plant the round ones first, to be sure I used them all.

Hubby likes how hot they get. Hot, spicy, lots of onion flavor.

Sunday after church:

Peas before

Peas after

I've been shelling on and off since I came in.

Not sure what I will plant where the peas were, but not squash and tomatoes as they grew there in 2023.

Speaking of squash...

Zucchini!

Yellow straightneck

Big squash blossom!

I made French onion soup with mine last year. My husband raved about it for weeks. They caramelize real nice. A lot of discussion seems to indicate seeded onions grow more plump with thicker rings of flesh than sets. I had pretty good success with my sets but I think the average size I got was about 2 to 2.5" diameter.

I will try growing from seed next year, and see what I get. Thank you!
