After seeing this hack online, we put it to the test here at the Veggie-Bed. These mature spring onions were grown from scrap roots, and we are letting them flower to produce seeds. The seeds will be for sowing next season and hopefully adapt to our soil and climate conditions.

Started indoors from seeds back in February, these red kale plants were the first plants to go into the ground this season. Once fully grown, they will provide abundant fresh leaf vegetables for a household of four throughout this season.
We planted them in the section where beans were grown last year.
This practice is part of our vegetable plant rotation to promote soil health.

We had a hectic morning here at the Veggie-Bed cleaning up our neglected garden. The first order of business was to pick all the ripe vegetables. Later this afternoon, any plant with signs of infestation or disease will be removed and placed in the trash.

These four young Dixie Hybrid squash plants are ready for us to plant out in the garden. We started them in the germination incubator and later moved them to the greenhouse, where they continue to develop.
A yellow crookneck summer squash, Dixie Hybrid yields much fruit throughout the growing season. When these young plants mature and fruit set, our dinner table and some of our neighbors will flow with this delicious fruit vegetable.

This tray of cherry tomato seedlings was transplanted to 6-inch pots to continue growing.
We placed them back into the germination incubator so that we can control their environment.
Eventually, we will move the young plants to the greenhouse until they can be planted out in the garden when the temperatures are warmer.
