Work & Observations

Mulched the remaining beds and did a very breif walk through before a work meeting.

The late Pisum sativum var. saccharatum (Snow Peas) are doing good so far. They have seem to have sprouted dispite the wind damage from the cold front. The early P. sativum var. saccharatum is also doing well considering I didn't put cold covers on them and we have had several frost in the last week which were cold enough that there was still a solid coat of frost on the ground this morning.

Personal Thoughts, Sketches, and Photos
