Earnestly Springing

Light blogging until tomorrow as I am on the road.  The weekend was glorious after the rain on Friday, so the gardening is starting to feel as if something may result from all the efforts so far.  The flea beetles are already feasting on my bok choy transplants and waiting eagerly for broccoli and brussels sprouts.  While most people have very little problem with these pests, I must have ideal habitat for them.  Fortunately, if I can get the transplants past a certain point they can handle a little damage.  The organic pesticide I use seems to hold them off, but it's another distraction from all the seeding and transplanting that needs to get done in a very short window.
