We can't seem to get a break from the rain right now. I checked on the garden. It's flooded. Like parts of it have 4 inches of standing water. Woke up to a chilly 36°F outside. So cold, I had to turn a heater on, and today I need to order propane (gulp!). Way too cold for a garden to grow, so I am praying my already planted herbs and flowers survive this dip in temperature. Wet and cold do not mix well for an abundant garden. My feverfew seeds did not sprout at all, so I may need to re-buy them if we want a harvest this year. I have been bringing in about 2-3 asparagus a day lately. We are at the end of harvest, but we keep getting a few a day. I'm already utilizing fresh herbs from the garden. The cilantro seed sprouts are holding up in this colder weather too. Same with the dill seeds I planted. About turnips . . . Turnips are the most under-rated cruciferous vegetable in my opinion. Probably along the same path ...
