Monday night we filled left over rain gutters with soil mix and seeded 8 of them with a dense seeding of winter and summer greens. We are hopeful that within a couple of days the seed will germinate and the greens will begin to form leaves. Our intent is to harvest micro-greens (early stage of development) to use as salad embellishment and just to have greens again for a variety of dishes.
What we seeded on February 1, 2016 :
Mesculin Salad Mix Mustard Greens
Tatsoi Black Seeded Simpson Leaf Lettuce
Tyee Spinach Grand Rapids Leaf Lettuce
Tango Lettuce
So we'll see how the winter growing goes this year, and hopefully this will be an every year thing. If you are interested in greens, please let us know and we will do our best to get you some.
Stay warm.
