yield from rowcover plot
Here is the June 8 yield from the rowcover plot that was planted May 2. Over 8 lbs or greens; Pac Choi, Kale, Napa Cabbage, Tokyo Mizuna. I planted out transplants of all these. The greens were interplanted around Broccoli, Cauliflower and Cabbage so they are still out. And probably appreciating the extra space now !!
Rowcovers in June
Here is the plot that was planted to lettuces, Chard, Beets and Carrots May 13. This is June 8, one month later. And a month of continuous rain and cold. We did have 2 nice days, one in the 70's, the other about 80 degrees. To make the rowcover let the water soak through, that was one of my concerns, I just sprayed it with the hose for a few minutes, as soon as it got soaked, the water seeped right in. If you use your imagination the 2 rows of lettuce and Chard/Beets are visible. Carrots are a bit harder to see in the front.
