Weekend Update

The weather was reasonably cooperative with gardening endeavors over the past weekend.  A good rain on Friday night was followed by clearing on Saturday and Sunday.  Still planting spinach and transplanting lettuce, bok choy and Chinese nappa cabbage.  It looks like the clay based organic spray didn't work to control the swede midge in my late broccoli plantings.  According to some gastronomes the leaves are tasty, so maybe I'll be eating broccoli leaves.  Harvested the last of the late onion crop amid 6 foot weeds.   It was like playing hide and seek.   The last plantings of basil, cilantro and dill are up, so that should free up time as the season wears on.  The tomatoes are finally ripening, so the tomato sauce making time is upon us.  I'll be trading in my hoe for a spoon!
