I am thrilled to pieces that the vegetable garden is fully planted! I’ve been chiseling away at it for the past several weeks, and yesterday I finally hammered in the last of the tomato stakes.
There is so much to do this time of year! I’ve been busy mulching all my beds and planting more spring crops. The first planting of radish and lettuce are already up, and I’ll probably have radish ready for harvest in another week or so—but I have a problem.
Don’t get caught up in one of these mistakes beginners most commonly make when planting their vegetable gardens.
I am experimenting this year with allowing my spring-planted lettuce and radish to develop and drop their own seeds.

Decision made. I am not going to plant a cover crop in the vegetable garden this year.
