Removing Some of My Radish and Pea Plants

I won’t be removing all of the plants, but I will be basically eliminate some of them to make room for the strongest in the row.  Luckily I don’t have to remove as much because both plants do not need that much room to grow and thrive.

I was able to put both plants in a single row making one half full of peas and one half of radishes.  I think this will make a good harvest for the spring season.

The pictures below are radish plants before and after thinning them out.

I did the same thing with my pea plants.  It probably took about an hour to complete the entire thirty foot row.  I also got rid of some of the weeds that were beginning to grow between the plants as well.  A good layer of mulch right now would be the best thing for them.

I also wanted to give you a heads up on some of my plants that are growing outside including lettuce and onion bulbs.  Right now they are both doing quite well and it looks like most of my onion bulbs have began growing stems.

My lettuce plants have been outside for the longest and they are getting much greener which is what I like to see.  This doesn’t go for my Ruby glow lettuce because they happen to be a dark red.  The darker the color the better.

At the moment it is still a little bit cool to put my other plants in the ground including tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, zucchini, watermelon, etc.  It is warm enough to start putting some of my flowers into the ground which includes alyssum, dill, and my new wildflower mix.

The month of May is almost here and that means it is almost time to start tilling and that is when the garden season gets busy.  Right now I just want to get my spring plants all set so I can focus on my summer plants which will come very soon.
