I have a few flats already going of onion, cabbages, kale, romaine and bibb lettuce, yod fah Chinese broccoli, bok choi, cilantro, and parsley.

Hopefully I'll get a second round of lettuces done, and then starting all the summer crops. Tomatoes, peppers, et .

Hoping to get some rows of spinach, beets, radishes, and turnips going in the greenhouse but well see how much time I actually end up having.

I definitely follow that sub, I should be more active in it as it warms up and I can move more of the fun stuff back outside.

Nothing too exciting this weekend. Going to be planting a bunch of seeds, getting the outdoor rows cleaned up and ready to plant, and fixing/adding some irrigation lines.

Sunday afternoon ill be yelling into the void while I try to put frost cloth on all my fruit trees again. These back and forth temp swings are brutal.

You can usually special order stuff like this from a local market like Ellwoods or Good Foods. I remember it being on the order guides back when I did produce stuff a few years back, 3 small packages for like $12ish?. I've also seen it once or twice at wegmans but never consistently so that might be worth a shot too.

It was always the red veined variety if that matters. Good luck!

Coast of Maine Bar Harbor mix is really nice. Doesn't hold too much water and has actual compost in it, not just coco coir and peat like some other mixes.

Most of the local nurseries carry it in a few different sized bags.
