I had a bit of a delay this year as the kids and I\u00a0were out of town for a week in mid-April and there was no water yet in the garden. I therefore decided to delay planting until we got back from our trip. It is one thing to ask your plot neighbor to water your crops in mid-July, which will entail pointing the hose a few yards to the side. It is yet another to ask him to haul over gallons of water from his house to do the same in the spring. So, today I transplanted lettuce and kale seedlings I had started indoors in March. Last weekend I also sowed carrots and radishes, a spring green mix, Swiss chard and more peas. Now let\u2019s\u00a0water and be patient.\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-341\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?resize=695%2C521&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"plot042916\" width=\"695\" height=\"521\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?resize=1100%2C825&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?w=1632&amp;ssl=1 1632w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/plot042916.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The first flowers are coming in and the strawberries are flowering and the rhubarb is looking good.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-343\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=695%2C695&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Geum042916\" width=\"695\" height=\"695\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=1100%2C1100&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?resize=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1 96w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Geum042916.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-344\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?resize=695%2C538&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"strawberries042916\" width=\"695\" height=\"538\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?resize=1024%2C792&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?resize=300%2C232&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?resize=768%2C594&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?resize=1100%2C851&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/strawberries042916.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-342\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?resize=695%2C521&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"rhubarb042916\" width=\"695\" height=\"521\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?resize=1100%2C825&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?w=1632&amp;ssl=1 1632w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/rhubarb042916.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High time to plant the garden!
