Picture: East garden.

Sorry, with the lasted update to my phone, all my pictures are distorted.

On the left of this picture is where this years crops will go. On the right is where my strawberries are, do to the lighting and the straw cover they do not look very good yet.

Yesterday I marked the garden into rows two foot apart. I thought I had an issue where I had more stakes on one end than the other but after counting them again I thought ... I had it corrected.

I finally planted my seed potatoes. It's been years since I had bought any. I hadn't planted any the last couple of years and before that I was just using the potatoes from the prior year that were too small to cook.

I planted some potatoes in the west garden and a few in the east garden. Then I planted some of last years 65 day sweet corn seed in the east garden. It has been a week already.

Then 1st thing this AM, I planted two plantings of corn. One planting of new 83 day in the west garden and another of old 78 day seed in the west garden. All the corn seems to be ready based on what the weather is more than what the germination dates are.

I also planted my morning glories but didn't have enough seed. Where I first planted them years ago they would go to seed to the point I didn't need to reseed every year.

Still working on weeding and moving my raspberries. Not sure how that is going to work, my four foot cubes of flowers do not match up to the raspberries and blue berries.

Below ... the garden is not really that narrow. On the left are the onion chives. Behind them are the raspberries and the blue berries. In the rototilled part is the corn. Further down in the fence are the tomatoes, peppers, onions and peas.

The brown stalks in the distance are the blackberries. I'm still waiting to see which stalks put out leaves and which are dead and can be removed.
