Bumblebee cherry tomatoes, Lipstick peppers, and violet sparkle bell peppers.

Jalapeño in the front and King of the North Bell peppers

Corbaci Peppers

Celery! Wanted to plant this outside this weekend, but since it’s April in Michigan the temps are gonna drop to about 25 at night next week.

Emerald Jewel lettuce. Also wanted to get this outside this weekend, but Michigan in April sucks.

Roma tomatoes

Radishes are just popping up. Had to squirrel proof the box so the seeds wouldn’t get dug up.

Spinach is thinned and ready to go!

Got 11 Music garlic and 31 Kay’s backyard garlic that was planted last fall and is now growing like crazy. Also 10 strawberry plants in the back left.

Closer view of the strawberries. Planted a few small rows of onions in between the plants that are just starting to pop up.

St. Valery carrots that are being stubborn and haven’t sprouted yet.

4 bags of Northern Red potatoes and 2 bags of White Superior potatoes. The Northern Red are just starting to pop out of the dirt.

The rest of the garden that will be direct sown when the weather is closer to summer like.

Michigan must be a tough zone to plant in, what's your past frost date?

Usually early May in the Detroit area where I am, but we have had frost and snow as late as mid May

That's crazy! I'm in south Texas and my last frost was Valentines day; it wiped out my volunteer potatoes.

Usually can’t plant any seeds or transplants in the garden before Memorial Day here or else they risk dying
