How does your garden grow?
Mine is still under the snow.

That sure is a beautiful shot, but I'm guessing you're likely getting tired of it by now. I won't rub it in too hard, but my garden is getting along pretty well right now. I've got a lot of the spring/summer stuff either already in or in seed trays getting ready to reach for the sky.
Of course, I'm on a much smaller scale than the garden you put in and for the length of your growing season, you sure pack a lot in for what amounts to probably half my growing season. Soon jal, soon.

Had the big thaw as well. Some, though not all, of my elephant garlic are poking out but doing well along the front yard fence row.
I found a forgotten leek that seems to be doing OK so I left it there, hopefully to resume growing when it really thaws.
The thaw brought ants into the house early, and they discovered the aphids on my indoor overwintering peppers.
But we had another snowfall and the ground is covered again. DD8, in a moment of tantrum, said "I'm TIRED of all this, this,... WHITEness on the ground!!! WHEN is spring coming!!!???"

Well...I top dressed the garlic with more compost, Put the strawberries in a bigger bed with top dressing, Planted onion starts in two beds and I will hopefully put the blueberries in larger pots before they start growing.
I have tomatoes, peppers, and herbs under grow lights. and we are building a new garden fence and 8 new beds that I need to fill and prep before the season really starts.
