Outside GroVid 22 Check, for May

So far, there's only a few plants outside... tomorrow, Satuyrday, a lot more will begin to make the journey outside.

Onions have been outside since early March. Potato since St. Patrick's Day (March 17). Herbs, not long after. Peas were planted in April.

Top priority for tomorrow is to sow Carrot Seed, and to fill 6 or 8 of the 10 Gallon (38 Liter) Fabric Grow Bags, with my combo 1/3 Soil, 1/3 compost, and 1/3 peat. If you remember, I have some seed germinating, in these paper towel, water, plastic baggies:

When I hold them up to light, I can clearly see a few of the seeds have germinated, and that means, I need to get ready to sow these soon.

After filling those Grow Bags, my next tasks for me to accomplish, this coming week:

• I have another 20 grow bags, to fill, that's the last of them. A total of 20 or so for pepper, 45 or so for tomato, a half dozen for other plants. These will get my usual 1/3 garden soil, 1/3 peat, 1/3 compost mix, plus Espoma® Garden-Tone and some worm castings. At the least, I need to gather the soil, compost and peat for this and perhaps start to mix it.
• end of week, I will start Hardening OFF my peppers: transplanting outside, within 10 days.
• Next week, I will be hardening off Tomato, and following week, squash, Zucchini and more herbs! It takes about a week for Hardening off plants. so, once I start, I transplant in 7 or 8 days, depending on weather.

I need to find a couple of large container for the Blueberry Bushes.
