Planted lima beans and french green beans in rb2 after soaking seeds for three days. Worried that I soaked them too long, but didn't feel like planting yesterday. Transplanted baby leeks into rb1 Transplanted a bunch of lettuce plugs into the Easter baskets I found when we cleaned out the garage yesterday. Planted cucumber seed on the soon to be cordoned area (Longfellow, Little Potato, and Holland White.) Harvested radishes, baby spinach and chives for use in a lunchtime quinoa salad. Planted sunflowers along the edge of the corn patch. Added levels to my patio flower pots using the cinder blocks I found when we cleaned out the garage.

Wish that I had researched more about mushroom compost before adding it to the soil in the tomato bed. Could have some chemical residue from mushroom production, hopefully not. Adding sheep and peat to the tomato and bean beds today to get them prepped for planting. Things that are ready to harvest today: radishes over-wintered Swiss Chard
