Harvest Monday

First I want to take a moment to remember why we have Memorial Day - thank you to all veterans who protect us with their lives.

Another week full of greens - I had to pull quite a bit out of the bed because it got really hot very fast and many letuces decided to bolt - my arugula, spinach and bok choy all have been pulled out.

First baby beets and some of my kohlrabi was pulled as well and beets were roasted - YUMMY!

 I plucked more of the Romaine lettuces but left the core in to keep growing - 1 lb .4oz

And some more spinach - this is the last of the preseeded that I planted in March. There is a strip of spinach remains that was planted on 1st of May - 7.9oz picked.

Lettuce has been picked couple of times, first batch was 12.7 oz - mostly soft buttery lettuces.

And more was added later in a week as I was cleaning bed from snails and had to clear from under the cabbages and broccoli to give them more room to grow - 6.5oz picked.

First garlic scapes were picked today with some sideshoots of broccoli. I hope it's going to start growing garlic bulbs now.

Beets came up to only about 2.2 oz total after I removed green tops. I probably should have waited couple of weeks more but I really wanted to see the taste when it's roasted.

And Kolrabi bulbs came up to just about 8oz - not going to plant them next  year.

I can't wait to see some other harvests come this way - peas, beans, potatoes and maybe some cucumbers should start growing in few weeks.
