Anyone else having fruit trees pushing out leaves?? My 2 plums trees have, it's too darn early and I just know a freeze will come along and wipe out this years crop again. Got blooms on my Myers Lemon Tree. My Lime Tree lost all it's leaves and they are popping out this week. Fig tree is popping leaves. I failed to look yesterday to see if the 33 degree frost got it. My lime tree is popping out leaves too.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

Nice day yesterday so I got out and tilled the garden. Planted ~100 onions, 1/2 yellow and 1/2 red. Just not ready to take the tomoatoes (18 plants) or bell peppers (6 plants) out of the greenhouse yet and plant in the garden. Despite the unseasonably warm weather, I just can't help but think we are still going to get some cold weather (below freezing) or at minimum more frosts so I don't want to risk it. Plants are still too small anyway but tomatoes are 5"-6" tall now so they are progressing nicely.

It thundered in February, hail, or jack frost in April.

Just an FYI, 2 cubic yards of the vegetable soil will fill 64 sq. ft. of raised beds 12" deep. And you will have nearly half a yard left.

Everything is shaping up. Had to transfer the peas and beans to a different pot. I assume the same will be done for the melons. Asparagus even sprouted. Not holding my breath though. I hear its nearly impossible to grow from seed.

Got one bed planted yesterday. Man, you can fill one of these in a hurry. These beds are 4' X 8' X 12". This bed has 6 different lettuce plants, 2 brussell sprout plants and 4 bundles of onions. She's full.

How big were your onion bundles? I put out 2 buddles last weekend and it ended up being over 100 plants total!
