  • I’m getting back into gardening after a 15 year hiatus. Zone 6b. I started 3 raised beds in the fall. Sowed 2 with winter rye and covered one with leaves. I’m going to work some soil conditioner in that one and start some lettuce, kale, radishes, carrots, and turnips soon. My mini soil blocker arrived today, so I’ll start peppers indoors soon. I’ll plant those and tomatoes in the other 2 beds - trying to do no till from here on out.

    If I have room, I’ll put in some zucchini and winter squash and a melon.

    I’m also trying my hand at doing some containers with dwarf peas and herbs.

    Finally, I’ve never really done flowers, but I’m having a go at nasturtiums, calendula, marigolds, and sunflowers.

    I really need to get some fencing up because we have a lot of deer!
