I stopped by the Big Barn Garden Centre on Monday and picked up some brussel sprouts for the garden. They may not be everyones favourite vegetable but I happen to love them, and if the flavour of homegrown broccoli is any indication the sprouts should be excellent. I also picked up 2 dwarf dill plants 'cause my current plant is not producing fast enough for my consumption rate. I planted 2 brussel sprouts and 1 dill in each plot to once again compare how they are progressing.
I took the opportunity while planting to move around some of the green onions and ended up creating tight row of 6 onions between the herbs and lettuce on the west plot. Some of the others were being consumed by the zucchini, which I am now investigating how to properly stake. I also planted 2 spinach seedlings, 1 in the southern plot, and one in an old coffee tin.
My final task was transplanting the Basil out of its container into a larger home. Maria had some old buckets laying around so I poked some holes in the bottom with my soldering iron and filled it up with potting soil. I also removed the final 2 Bok Choy plants by cutting them at the base. I am not sure if they will regrow this season or just do nothing but I thought I would give it a try.
