Thunder and Lighting on the farm

The past weekend was transplanting time, our neighbour tom told us that it would have been the best weekend for transplanting because of the cool day and a forecast of rain in the evening. So we did, 800 strawberry plants were put in the middle of the orchard to fully utilize the space until the trees get big and to minimize the amount of weeds in the orchard. Also in the field the lettuce is growing strong and tall. The chickens had a taste of the sweet lettuce and made us jealous. we planted lots of different varieties of ground crops, such as Tomatoes yellow pear and German, black beauty Zucchini , red pontiac yukon gold and norland potatoes, golden batham corn, and figured that we just planted an eight of our field. The raspberries are alive!!! after the hard work and the long wait we have new shoots on thirty percent of the plants which is a great relief. Here is Maria walking thru the lettuce and cabbage rows and in the background is our greenhouse tractor and truck it was an overcast day, and in the evening it turned out to be a thunder and lighting storm, which sure did water the whole garden and also the lighting fixates nitrogen into the soil which is extremely beneficial for the plants and one of the reason why crops grow overnight after a storm. Grow plants grow. Next weekend is going to be even more busy with the transplanting of the Beets and beans and more tomatoes and hot and sweet peppers very exciting anyone that wants to come and help is always welcome!!!

until next week.
