I've got a unheated 12'X40' high tunnel/hoop house. Usually I'm able to get tomatoes and peppers in the ground under that in late March here in the NE corner of the state. We had a late freeze last year that caught me not paying attention. I already had a few dozen tomato and pepper plants in the ground and I had set 3 72 count plug trays out to start hardening off. Lost all of it.
The year before we had another late freeze and the hoop house made it through OK but I lost my entire blueberry crop, 45 plants, not a single berry.
That's farming for ya.

Bump, for garden updates. What’s everyone growing?

 

[Glock 'em down]

I gots tomaters, cucumbers, jalapenos, onions and butternut squash in the ground. We've been eatin' asparagus for the last few weeks now. This is their 6th or 7th year to produce. Love it! I hope our mater crop does something this year. I haven't had a good mater in a couple years.

Put 15 more tomatoes out today to go with the rest in the greenhouses.

Going to have to find somewhere to put the other ones

Cabbages are heading up. I think these were the golden acre variety. I know they are more compact so I put them in the containers

Broccoli and cauliflower are looking good , still too early for the heads on them.

The ones outside were planted later and had to deal with the weather more so they are smaller but the color looks good

Green onions

Second planting of carrots

Mustard greens are popping up

Collards and beets are coming up but too small for photo

I planted corn last week just in time for a downpour so they might have to be replanted . It wasn't the best bed preparation and they may have gotten buried too deep.

No traditional garden for us as we travel too much to maintain one. We do have a big asparagus patch left that gives about 5 gallons of fine eating every spring. We’ve already got the first gallon in the fridge. I put about 20 bulbing onions in some big flower pots to get as much growth from them before summer heat finishes them off.
My buddy has a 1/4 acre garden he’s planted. I till it for him every year with the three point tiller.
Found it a lot easier to help buy his plants and seeds, then go help pick. Lol. There is around 500 onions already in, red, white and yellow along with leaf lettuce, radishes and carrots. All the warm season plants going in next week.
