Thought you'd appreciate a seed upate.

Radishes - Half the seeds sprouted and are pretty much fully grown at this time. Will let them go to seed of course.

Spinach - Only one sprouted and the plant is about 6 inches tall right now. Obviously will let that one go to seed.

Lettuce - Three seeds sprouted and are still quite small.

Next time around will definitely grow the seeds indoors to get seedlings, then plant them in the garden. Next time will start at a more appropriate time of the year as well. Have discovered that my yard is quite suited for sunflowers and cucumbers, so should lay those seeds on for next season.

I have only harvested some spinach seed so far and Barry sent me his update today. I have 2 kinds of lettuce coming, Rouge D"Hiver, a Red french Heirloom, and some butterhead. They will probably take another month or 2 to ripen.
