Tom LeykisTHE LETTUCE SEEDS IN THE BOISE GREENHOUSE ARE SPROUTING LIKE CRAZY!!
As mentioned before, the "greenhouse" is a shelf in my office closet with a grow light on a timer. The little soil cups are holding 2 kinds of lettuce and 1 kind of spinach. I water them twice a day and planted the seeds on Tuesday.
Nothing from the spinach yet, but BIG LIFE from the lettuces!
Time to get the garden ready for spring outdoor planting! Among other things, we love living in an agricultural environment, where you can actually grow stuff. San Francisco was a little cold and foggy for real vegetable gardening.
Our 5th gardening summer is coming right up! Lettuces are hard to do here, but I got a couple of harvests last year. More coming up!

What's typically your best crop?

If I had to pick one, I would have to say cucumbers, and not just because my wife already holds an Idaho State Fair Blue Ribbon for her pickles made from them. They are prolific and forgiving.
We love tomatoes, but they will not forgive you if they get too cool or too warm at the wrong times. They love the sun and heat, but if they get it while flowering and pollinating, kiss your crop goodbye.

Onions are another favorite, but don't believe the nonsense that you don't need to water them. You do. Artichokes are great, but they don't survive the winter well.
The chickens next door have started laying again, and we're given some. We save the shells from store bought winter eggs, because the hens next door need the calcium. Not a habit we had when we lived in the big coastal city.

This may be a really good growing spring and summer! The wife got a lot of the raised beads cleared out today and ready for planting!
What are you growing? Nothing next to railroad tracks. Too toxic.

They grind up the shells into the feed?

Yes, the chickens are pets there and well cared for. The shells are part of their diet, but chickens aren't picky eaters.

I’d have picked you for at least two cucumbers to ram up your flabby butthole Thomas

The lights are on in the greenhouse, the lettuce sprouts produced bigger and newer life overnight and the spinach is starting to come alive!
Dawn is breaking in beautiful Boise and it looks like another wonderful day of life!

Please try to contribute something more to life than that. It's embarrassing to see.
