What Now?

Today is Monday, April 9th. This week's gardening chores include:

  • Broccoli: Transplant 1-2' apart in rows 2' apart. Grows best in rich, well-drained soil in full sun. Floating row covers help keep pests at bay.
  • Cabbage: Transplant plants 12-18" apart in rows 2' apart. Grows best in rich, well-drained soil. Benefits from uninterrupted growth, so maintain consistent moisture and fertility. Water when rainfall is less than 1 inch per week, and regularly apply compost or balanced fertilizer. Floating row covers help keep pests at bay.
  • Peas: Sow seeds directly in rows 6" apart with seeds 2" apart. Support vines with netting or trellis or maximum yield.
  • Spinach: Sow seeds directly in rows 1/2 - 2' apart and cover with 1/2" of soil.

What Next?

Looking ahead, next week's gardening chores include:

  • Cauliflower: Transplant hardened-off seedlings 2' apart in rows 30" apart.
  • Lettuce: Sow seeds directly in rows 12" apart and cover with scant 1/4" of soil. Keep moist.
  • Onions: Transplant hardened-off seedlings 2-3" apart in rows 12-16" apart. In the North, plant onion sets as soon as the soil can be worked. In the South, plant onion sets in the fall.
