Ramping up to garden season

The last piece of flooring went down last week and with the help of my Dad, the torn out carpet made the trip to the dump at Union City.  I was very glad to get the carpet out of here before it became a sponge in a heavy rain.  I should have known better, we don’t get heavy rain here.  This last round of storms produced a grand total of 0.01 of an inch.  Oh well, at least it’s gone.

The above average winter and very much above average February has the garden thinking spring is here.  Judging by some of the latest model data, it’s hard to argue against it.  Unfortunately, we are still more than a month away from the average date of last freeze, and two months away from the date of record last freeze.  Basically – there’s a lot of time for cold air intrusions and I expect that many of the early bloomers will be in for a frost bite at some point.

I did get some seeds started this week.  Tomatoes, peppers and eggplant all went into the potting soil.  This ended up being a few days later than I wanted, but the floor was taking priority in February.  The seed pots have been moved indoors for good temperatures for germination.  Once we get them rolling in here they will make the move out to the greenhouse.

New Raised Beds

Soil for three new raised beds arrived on Friday, February 5th.  The soil itself is Rich Mix which comes from Minick Materials in Oklahoma City.  It was delivered by K&K Nursery and Landscape from Norman.  Rich Mix is 47% topsoil, 25% clean sand, 25% Prairie Gold and 3% gypsum.  I had no idea what “Prairie Gold” was, so here it is from the Minick website: Prairie Gold is a key ingredient to building a healthy and productive soil. It is aged, screened, and is a natural food source for the microbes that provide nutrients. Our compost is aged at temperatures that kill weed seed, pests, and destructive pathogens giving you a rich compost to build a healthier soil for your garden or planting bed.
