seedling in a soil block ready to transplant |
Well I made lots of soil blocks and have been planting lots of seeds. The best gardening season of the year is fall to spring; summers are just too darn hot. I've planted the following,either in the ground or in soil blocks:
- Amber violas from Botanical Interests.
- pakchoy
- tatsoy
- Broccoli-purple, DiCicco and Romanesco
- Early Snowball Cauliflower
- Early Jersey Wakefield Cabbage
- Red Giant Mustard
- dwarf snap dragons
- mixed lettuces
- Golden Globe Turnips
- Easter Egg Radishes
- Western Front Kale
- mache
- mizuna
- chard
- spinach
- Sweet Magnolia, a purple podded snap pea
If you don't know what soil blocks are, I wrote a three part article about them, complete with color photos of making and using them. You can read part one, at this link:
Seed Starting in Soil Blocks. There are links to the other parts on that page.
