This bed is full of onions&#8211;and I still have some left to plant. When I went to Piper this evening, I had every intention of planting some cabbage and broccoli because the seedlings are starting to lay over. I think they need to be planted where their roots have a little more room to grow&#8211;although I did read that these plants have shallow root systems. Instead, though, I weeded the entire onion bed, planted some more onions (row down the middle), watered them, and raked up some of the grass in the back forty. I was going to put the grass on the onion bed as mulch, but decided to let it dry another day or so&#8211;then I will do it. At work today, Joel mentioned that he had trouble with mold when he used grass. Hmmmm. Maybe I should use some straw? I will have to investigate that.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wc-gallery\"><div id='gallery-1' data-gutter-width='5' data-columns='1' class='gallery wc-gallery-captions-onhover gallery-link-post gallery-masonry galleryid-488 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-large wc-gallery-bottomspace-default wc-gallery-clear'><div class='gallery-item gallery-item-position-1 gallery-item-attachment-491'>\n\t\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/?attachment_id=491' title='DSC_0223' target='_self'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"349\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0223-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"491\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0223-1024x681.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0223-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tred onions\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><div class='gallery-item gallery-item-position-2 gallery-item-attachment-490'>\n\t\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/?attachment_id=490' title='DSC_0224' target='_self'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"349\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0224-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"490\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0224-1024x681.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0224-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tfinished onion bed\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><div class='gallery-item gallery-item-position-3 gallery-item-attachment-489'>\n\t\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/?attachment_id=489' title='DSC_0225' target='_self'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"349\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0225-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"489\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0225-1024x681.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.jennifer.ostinata.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DSC_0225-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\toverview\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh, my!
