Greeting to all from west Michigan. Picking lots of romaine lettuce which I started under plexiglas at Easter. Also getting lots of nice radishes. Tried a baby bok choi from rareheirloom seeds and just love it. Stalks are skinny and tender and lots of green leaves. I’ve been chopping it up and making stir fry and adding it to homemade chicken fried rice. No broccoli yet or tomatoes. Also picking chard and still getting some asparagus. I have the plot that never seems to end.
I have some critters that LOVE my Swiss chard. It is growing well, but the big beautiful leaves are pockmarked with holes.
And my bean plants have reddish bugs hanging out on them, making webs of many of the leaves.
I’ve sprayed with a fruit and vegetable spray from Wal mart, but it doesn’t seem to help at all.
Anyone have any ideas?
Other than that, things are growing well. I’m amazed the bunnies and deer haven’t found my beautiful romaine and butter lettuce yet.
Bummer the tomatoes and cucumbers aren’t ripe yet - my salads are boring with just lettuce and radishes!
