No sign of the pumpkins or melons yet, but the potatoes are doing fine. Very different sprouting rates though, some are this big already while others just barely came out. Bit grassy as this was an overgrown goat pasture until this spring.

The beetroots are also starting to show up, having taken their time.

No sign of carrots, not a one. Perhaps another dodgy seed pack. Had quite a few of those.

The cabbage seedlings got flattened by the heavy rain, but hopefully they're still alive.

@yngmar
Sorry for the situation,some times life challenges are teaching lessons to us
But that was also a lesson to us as farmers
Why are there no signs of pumpkins or melons
@yngmar keep the faith, carrots take forever! 🤣

@alisynthesis As my wife says: "Hope is the mother of fools", so I got another pack from a different distributor and put some to germinate in a tray. Worst case we'll have extra carrots ;-)

They'll be late, but carrots seem to shrug off some frost just fine.

@yngmar wise wife!

This is my second carrot conversation today. You might be interested in my other one, given your current carrot status:

The concept of having a container stuffed full of carrots is pretty darn appealing.
