Got the second big row covered with weed fabric and mulch this evening.
Planted the rest of the tomatoes I had started. Some kind of small but hoping they survive.
Planted out peppers. Pretty sure most of them will make it.
Most of the things I planted out today aren't mulched yet. However, the ground is well irrigated and the plants are hardened off. Long as there isn't too much sodium in the soil for them, they should survive.
Lettuce is coming up. Still quite tiny.
Pulled quite a bit of bindweed. Thousands more coming up but can't reliably tell the difference between that, lettuce and spinach yet. Have to pull it as it grows to an identifiable point. Going to be a big job all summer. If I don't seem to win the battle during the summer, I'll solarize the whole garden in the fall, when it's still warm enough to do so and just keep the fall crops to a minimum.
