Sow what?

Planted vegetable seeds today, so this is as good a place as any to begin. It was warm and clear and into the soil went Little Marvel (dwarf) Peas, planted about twice as dense as recommended. And a bed blanketed with lettuces (something Ferry-Morse is calling Salad Bowl, Mesclun [gourmet greens mixture], Rouquette/Arugula) and spinach (Bloomsdale, Long Standing).

The lettuce bed will be harvested by trimming with scissors when the plants get 3-4" high, providing a bushel of baby lettuce leaves. I did this previously at the West Valley Occupational Center garden while a student there and had about a 20-gal trash bag worth of lettuce in about 8 weeks. That bed was planted about Thanksgiving and was harvested for a 2nd time by the end of January.
