C'mon Rain!

I'm ready! Chicken chores completed. Spinach, mustard, and kale picked and washed. Soil fluffed in selected beds and seeds planted. Skies are gray. It smells like rain, and rain is expected. But I didn't want to take any chances … I watered those seeds in ... even though Rouse the Spouse laughed at me!

A full bed of beets. Three rows, three varieties:
  • Furano
  • Red Ace
  • Ruby Queen
  • + one more row of Furano variety to fill in the existing bed of spinach
A small bed:
  • Hakurei, salad turnips
  • Easter Egg radishes
  • a few good ol' red radishes
  • more Red Cardinal spinach
A small bed:
  • half Mizuna (Indian mustard)
  • half Arugula
I'm looking for spring … warm sunshine and gentle rains.
