The last weekend was really warm, about +10+12C and I spent some hours doing spring clean-up that I missed last fall.
And today it is snowing again with possible freezing rain after.
I am really affected by weather - long winter makes me feel blue. My be I need more vitamin D or as I called it "phitotherapy" - working in the garden, I missed it!
"Clean up" - I want everything to be neat and clean, but as always......
and I want to try Mittleider garden method this year.
I have couple reasons -my garden is in a wooden area, a lot of shade, and I need a productive method. Fist I tried to add more beds space and made a walks very narrow.
The more garden space I was thinking, the better! But the shade from tall plants was horrible for other beds, so I desided to make the beds about 60-70cm (24-28 inches) and the rows between almost the same.
I will rearrange from north to south. (north-north-east to south-south-west).
These are 2 cleaned beds - asparagus on the back (cleaned, compost added, fertilized) and a new one for green peas.
The new cilantro and lettuce seedlings were transplanted yesterday and today they are looking good in greenhouse and under row covers.
I have some new 2x1 wooden planks to make new shelf's and plant support.
May be I will add some shelf's to this corner for seedlings trays and other light stuff.
And that snow is keeping me inside!
