Raised Bed #1 Follow-Up

It's been about a month since I started my first raised garden bed. Here is a before and after picture of my garden bed and updates.



Parris Island Romaine Lettuce:


Red Romaine Lettuce:


My red romaine lettuce has started to bloom. I am going to save the seeds and plant them later.


Both the red and white onions seem to be healthy and the stalks are getting longer.



Three different types of kale:

.
All three varieties of kale have developed white spots on them. I'm affraid this may be a fungus that I read is common in members of the Brassicaceae family which includes kale. I am going to keep an eye on it to see if it continues. I have not noticed it on any of my other veggies but fear if it is a fungus that it will spread.


The radish and Swiss chard seeds I planted have sprouted and look healthy.


The green onion seeds I planted have not sprouted yet. They should have already so it looks as though they are not going to. The seeds were pretty old so I plan on picking up some more seeds at the seed bank.
