I’ve finally got all my seedlings outside although nothing in the ground yet. I’ve been so busy with the POPYC garden, prepping the boat, filling jg.com orders, posting to blogs, Ben’s baseball, etc. that my own garden has gone completely unattended. The grass and weeds have taken over. The second half of June and July I’ll spend trying to reclaim the beds from the weeds.
