I'm letting my 'Packman' broccoli go to seed for collection, Yeah, it's a hybrid but I just want to collect the seed and see what it makes. So I'm taking the deer netting off so the bees can get at the flowers and my eyes fall on something growing along the other side of the bed.
Could it be???? Yes! The fall sown beets that got totally toasted and "died" from an unexpected frost are coming back. This is eerily similar to that beet story I told about some fall planted and "dead" beets coming up along my spring pea row.
They're small and not pretty (got a tad toasted again the other night) but they're there.
Maybe I should just plant them in the fall and expect them in spring!
Meanwhile, the beet seed I just sowed a few days ago isn't up yet but it's too soon. They will get row cover this time should frost threaten.
