First 2009 Harvest

Today I was able to harvest some butterhead lettuce for our dinner tonight.
It weighed in at 2.4 oz

There is nothing like fresh lettuce right out of the garden.



While I was out playing I took photos of some bugs. I have no idea if these are good or bad bugs. So I posted the photos on GardenWeb in the Pest Forum to ID them.

This first one I found hanging out on the celery.



This one was flying around the carrots. Could it be a carrot fly?



This one was in potato bin 2



This guy is on my red norland potato. Looks to be an assassin bug, but I'm not sure.



Once I get an ID on each of these I will update this post.

The seedlings are doing very well in the greenhouse today. The first planting of the bicolor corn should be ready to plant out into bed 2 in just a few more days.






Five more days until Spring!
