My Alaska garden

[uppityperson]

5. I am glad to finally get a warm year, am glad am not down in CA though even here we

are very low on snowpack. I love this time of year, doing the garden, trying to remember to space those little plants far enough apart.

I've been growing several kinds of spuds, including local Ozettes. I am trying to build up my stock of them, thought I had enough last year to eat some as well as save for this year but my brother in law found out about them so sent home a bag with them instead of eating them. Maybe this year they'll do great.

I've compared my garden with family in France and theirs grow so much bigger faster. They are on the English channel and while our day temps are the same, their night temps stay higher than here. We get your cold water coming down, they get the warmer water coming up.

I love seeing what grows easily in different places, very interesting.
