Garden Kult Superiority

Garden planning for next year, building on what was planted this past year. You better believe it's a shit load of work. From starting seeds indoors, to planting, to garden maintenance, to harvest, to preserving, to storage. You simply have no idea.  But it is absolutely worth it.   I am also extremely aware that this is completely unrelatable to practically everyone on this site. 

This past year the following were planted - including pollinator plants:

• Tomatoes (several varieties; striped roma, rainbow, banana legs)
• Chili peppers (several varieties, red habanero, orange habanero, nazgul's breakfast, sriracha, jalapeno, Carolina reaper, dragons tongue)
• Squash (acorn and hubbard) - 2026 goal
• Corn (sweet) -- fucking raccoons ruined some of these. 
• Pumpkin (pie)
• Pickling cucumbers
• Zucchini
• Potatoes (yukon gold)
• Green beans
• Green peas
• blue peas
• Cabbage (green and purple)
• Brussels Sprouts
• Carrots 
• Asparagus (expect a proper yield in 2026)
• Beets (yellow and red)
• Radish (Daikon and red)
• Lettuce (green)
• Garlic (already in the ground)
• Cilantro
• Cat mint
• Strawberries
• Gooseberries (perennial - no berries this past year due to being a new plant)
• Raspberries (perennial - 3-4 varieties, some berries this past year, but still young plantings and not a large yield)
• Black raspberries (perennial - same situation as past year)
• Apple trees (2 varieties -Courtland and Russet young trees, no yield yet, long-term investment)
• Pear trees (2 varieties -Bosc and Bartlett, same situation as apples)
• Cherries (2 varieties, Sweet and Sour, same situation as apples)
• Canada plum (same situation as apples)
• American plum (same situation as apples)
• Dill
• Leeks
• [Chives  --- think these were actually green onions and falsely sold as chives]
• Horseradish
• Lavender
• Basil
• Celery
• Radiccio
• Marigolds 
• Nasturtium
• Kale
• Montreal melon
• Moon and Stars melon

Have also started mushrooms, but may be a while until those sprout from the logs that were inoculated.

Maple syrup was also produced last year, insane amount of work, but got a good 14 litres of syrup for 17 trees on the property (part of the reason I bought this place).

Also have planted many native flowers on the property and continue to be anti-mow.
