Peas, Tomatoes, Tomatillo, Cauliflower, Potatoes

Outdoor transplants: Tomatoes, Tomatillo, and Cauliflowers, Celery.
Planted potatoes that had sprouted in the pantry: Russets
Transplanted curly parsley into the herb garden.



The Dakota peas and many of the Serge peas never sprouted so I replanted the Serge peas and left the area of pea shoots empty since the beans will go in soon. I think they did not sprout beause of the very heavy rains that occurred for the full week after planting.
