Re: March: What to plant in Northern California and Central Valley areas
I'm glad I stocked up on coarse Vermiculite from A.M. Leonard when they had it on sale with free shipping. They are out of stock now.

Sugar Snap Peas and de Jour 18 radishes. I planted them in used Jiffy Pellets in the MBR without heat. I know they'll take longer, but I need my heating pads for summer stuff.

I planted sprouted red potato sections in 2 5-gallon buckets. I will wrap the buckets in aluminum foil when it gets to warm and sunny, and add straw mulch to the top.
Re: March: What to plant in Northern California and Central Valley areas
You can plant a big variety of different plants f.e. Set out seedlings of broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, and spinach. Plant seeds of beets, carrots, leeks, onions, peas, radishes, and turnips.More specifically, crops grown in the Valley include rice, almonds, walnuts, plums, peaches, tomatoes, wheat, olives, corn, alfalfa, pears, sunflowers, grapes, kiwifruit, and hay.sanderson wrote:I planted sprouted red potato sections in 2 5-gallon buckets.

Except for our brutally hot summers, is your climate much like ours, Kay? What zone are you in?Kay Burton wrote:You can plant a big variety of different plants f.e.

It's been a while since I posted on this thread. In fact, it was right after I recovered from a first round of original Covid.
The rains since December 26 have been a blessing to the water supply but disastrous in certain areas. Washed out roads or landslides, mandatory evacuations. Hopefully we will have a drier April to get everything transplanted or sowed in the garden.
