Week 17 - Bed 12 Planting

This bed was double-dug over the past few weeks and in the fine seedbed we sowed:

• Verdonet Leek (1 short row) - a very hardy, large dark green variety which stands all winter and well into spring
• Lancia Leek (1 short row) - a productive variety which can be harvested from mid July to Oct
• Nantes II Carrot (1 long row) - an early, small cored, medium length, blunt variety
• Tarpy F1 Spinach (.5 long row) - a fast growing hybrid with smooth round dark oval leaves
• Rucola Coltivata Rocket/Arugula (.5 long row) - a refined variety with rich dark leaves and wonderful spicy taste

The leeks will be transplanted in the early summer.
