SW Ohio, planting zone 6b March 2nd, 2024 It's opening season in the garden! We've had a string of warm weather which means we are ahead by about 2 weeks. We direct sowed peas, arugula, cilantro and dill and used milk jugs to create mini greenhouses for them in case the weather turns sour later in the month. We also made a decision to plant the onions out after looking at the long term forecast showing no temperatures in the 20s for 10 days. We planted the following varieties: sierra blanca, cabernet, patterson and super sweet yellow Utah jumbo. We planted a total of 224 plants in a 12x4 foot raised bed. Back in the seed starting room we potted up our brassicas. These are less cold hardy than onions so we generally plant them out early April. We also started our peppers: watch to the end to see a list of varieties! As always, if you have any questions, please let me know in the comments.
