The very first thing I did was hurt my back on April 6th when I was going to plant the onion sets. Typical you know, stuck inside all winter and then the time to get the garden going comes along and – wham – strain the back right off the bat. I did get the onions planted and it took nearly 4 weeks to recover to the point where I can get working seriously again. I lost out on getting some early stuff planted like the peas and some greens. Now that I am focused on getting the tomato plants in the ground, I happened to look over at the onions that I planted and noticed that they are doing quite well.
