Catching Up - April 19, 2009

Lots of rain! Both rain barrels are full although the new one is leaking around the dispensing hose. I don't think it's a matter of tightening the clamp either. Not sure how I will repair without draining the water. :( Luckily it's not a significant leak so I'll just take a wait and see approach. All of the rain has kept me from dividing and transplanting daylilies and hostas. I need to get this done before the weather gets too hot for me! I also still need to build my 2 new raised beds. The lettuce is looking good. So are the cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage. Haven't seen any pea, snowpea or carrot sprouts. Why are carrots so hard to grow!!
