new mushroom logs and plants set out

Over the weekend (under a canopy in the yard as the nice rain was coming down) I innoculated 12 new poplar logs with oyster mushroom spawn (from Sharondale)...should provide a lot when they fruit this coming Fall. Thinking about covering with burlap and running some low-flow irrigation around them to keep moist through the Summer.

Yesterday, Amy set out into the beds some of the seedlings started in January...lettuce, kale, and others. We've also started more Spring veggie, herb, and flower seeds in the basement with a new heat mat...will be adding another lamp soon.
