2026 #gardening season began today with sowing of leeks, onions, violas. #gyo #GrowFoodFromSeeds
@gecole Oh very nice. Are any 2025 season leeks still in the pantry in a dehydrated form?
@Pollinators I sure wish they were. The only 2025 remnants are garlics in the garage, and spinach and arugula left under row covers over at the crops garden. Last year both wintered over very nicely so I'm hoping for something similar this year. How about you?
@gecole Yes. The dehydrated leeks are a jar of delicate concentric circles.
@gecole What zone are you in?
@gecole sorry I should have looked at your profile first - I see it’s 6b.
Nice work getting seeds going already!
@Halcyonline We are in 6b, greater Boston area. I forgot to mention that all this is indoors, under lights, and will be so for quite awhile. I think were at 17 weeks til frost free days.
@gecole I strted onions/leeks/shallots last year from seed, but found I don’t have enough space to hold the plants indoors until it’s time to set them out.
I’m adding a small greenhouse soon to allow more seed starting
