Green Onions. Booker T. Seeds and Things For West Chester Garden.

So I've picked up the following that will be going into my The THAT BLUE YAK GARDEN OF HOPE this week:

- Onions sets
- Shallots
- Lettuce - Black-Seeded Simpson
- Lettuce - Iceburg A
- Spinach - Bloomsdale Long-Standing
- Cabbage - Earliana

I also picked up some Beefmaster and Early Girl Tomato seeds that I'll be starting indoors.

I think I'll play Booker T's song "Green Onions" at the opening ceremony of my garden this year. So I'm giving everyone time to learn this dance.

Gardening outside? When you could be growing them inside without fear of government intervention, using thousands of fiberoptic strands endpointed at different places outside?

Sounds like the making of a great salad.

I wish it was legal to grow pot. Weeds are the only thing that want to grow in my yard anyway so it would work out quite nicely.

lol Groovy!

1:02 is my fave move

I wish I'd been around in the 60's!

Dr Zibbs said...

P Jones - call me when your crop comes in. I've go some photography ideas we can work on.

May Zeus bless your garden with bountiful goodness.

Dr Zibbs said...

Brian - thanks for your non Jesus blessing.

Hey there Mr. Green Jeans, did you know that the government passed a law which makes it illegal to buy or sell sprouting seeds in Pennsylvania? Highly suspicious.
Just an fyi.
Good luck with your garden, from a fellow gardener.
And Happy Easter. xo

I just planted Basil, parsley, cilantro, dill, and TONS of flower seeds.

Which is why I am WAY too tired for sex. p.s.


Maybe another day.

Dr Zibbs said...

Vodka Mom - just lie back and relax. I'll do alllllll the work.

What kind of human being doesn't already know that dance?

Michelle said...

Wow impressive Dr Z!

Can I come over for salad??

Michelle said...

And I like the moves at 1.29!!!

Jeannie said...

ah the 60's.

I don't do food in the garden much. Maybe some herbs. I forget to water. I even forgot to water when I had a functioning sprinkler system.

I used all of those moves growing up. Most of the time people assumed I was having a seizure and held me down and put sticks in my mouth to try and stop me from swallowing my tongue.

Beefmaster and Early Girl. Those are cartoon characters, not vegetables.

Dr Zibbs said...

Lost in Space - in your honor, once the veggies are grown I'll make them into cartoon characters.
