Beans last week in the dry garden. Lentils are up and apparently thriving. Today quinoa, beets, spinach. All of these have had the last water they'll get from me.

I found two survivors from the diakon radish. Three rutabagas and one parsnip survived no water last summer, and then a cold winter. A few onions survived as well. They'll all be encouraged to go to seed and I'll have first generation adaptation. No 2nd generation flax yet, and it doesn't look like either the apricot or the almond seedling survived the winter.

Tomorrow I start planting popcorn. I think I'll plant one or two rows per week and find the sweet spot where it does the best. Last year I planted in February and none of it came up. I replated in May, which was far too late.
