I took advantage of a warm afternoon and went out into the garden. 

I really wanted to work on getting a couple more beds cleaned, and free them of some weeds.

I added fertilizer.  My fish fertilizer had run out.  I bought some Organic fertilizer made by Miracle Gro. 

One of the beds I did not plant.  I did add some composted cow manure to that one.  It was very wet so I decided to just let it rest for a few day and dry out a little.  Then I can mix the manure in a little easier. 

To the second I added fertilizer, then scratched it in with a small hand rake.  In this bed I planted Shallots, Yellow Onion sets, Sweet Onion sets and Garlic sets.  I put the sprinkler in low for a couple of minutes to help settle them in.

I spread some old hay in the aisles around these two beds to help hold down weeds.

While I was out I saw that the peas are all up and doing nicely!  Yeah!!!
