quits raining and warms up , maybe my garden would take off ! I guess I shouldn't complain , we've started harvesting some lettuce and bok choy . The tomatoes have recovered from the freeze that hit the night after I planted them - well , the ones that survived . I had to replace 8 plants , but 4 of those would have survived if I'd left them alone . Patience might be a virtue , but it ain't one of mine ... I replaced the dead/dying with some Roma's at my wife's request , she wants to make ketchup or something . That leaves 4 Rutgers and 7 Beefsteak , so we'll still have plenty for the table . Everything else seems to be doing well , though slow because it's been chilly and wet . Some of my corn is almost a foot tall , all my vine stuff is sprouting , and for the first time I've got strawberries to grow . We had a part-bag of taters , looked all wrinkled and too ugly to eat so I planted them . Might be another first for me !
