Massachusetts Spring Garden Recovery – What I Fixed & What I Won’t Do Again!

This week’s garden update takes you deep into my real spring garden here in Massachusetts. From sweet potato slips finally waking up, to fava beans bouncing back from transplant shock and mustard green interference, it’s been a week full of surprises—some good, some humbling. ⏱ VIDEO CHAPTERS – What’s Growing in My Massachusetts Garden (Zone 6B Spring Update): 0:00 Intro Welcome back to the garden! Here’s what’s thriving, what’s struggling, and what I’ve learned this week in spring gardening, Zone 6B. 0:37 Sweet Potatoes Slips are finally forming—here’s how I warmed them up and what to expect if you’re starting sweet potatoes in cooler climates like Massachusetts. 1:46 Tomato Seedlings My tomatoes are bouncing back after up-potting! See the exact mix I used and how I’m prepping them for transplant. 2:41 Peppers I planted two peppers per pot—on purpose. Learn why I double up for variety and how they’re performing this spring. 3:48 Potatoes First earlies, second earlies, and main crop russets—here’s my spacing experiment and what kind of growth I’m seeing already. 5:13 Seedlings Seaweed fertilizer made a big difference this week. Here’s how I use it to grow stronger, greener spring seedlings. 6:15 Bok Choy My bok choy is nearly ready to harvest. I’m rotating in cucumbers next, with marigolds as a companion crop. 7:13 Spinach This overwintered spinach is bolting—but not before feeding us for weeks! See what I’m planting in its place. 8:37 Red Russian Kale This kale is flowering, and I’m letting it go to seed for future harvests. Here’s why heirloom seed saving matters. 10:27 Kale The older kale is bolting fast. I’ve decided to pull it and transplant fresh starts to keep the bed producing. 11:10 Carrots Carrot thinning is underway. I explain my “harvest while you thin” method to get baby and full-size carrots from one planting. 12:23 Cabbage I compare 6-cell vs. 16-cell trays and show which grew stronger cabbage after a tough pest hit. 13:28 Kohlrabi Slow and steady wins the race! This crunchy spring crop doesn’t rush—and that’s okay. 14:09 Celery Pest damage wiped out some celery. I used diatomaceous earth and now I’ve got space—maybe for basil? 14:54 Garlic Spring garlic isn’t performing, but I’m learning and saving the best for replanting. Why fall garlic is still the winner. 16:00 Onion Weeds were choking my storage onions, so I did a major cleanup. Here’s how early weeding saves work later. 16:49 Flowers Marigolds are thriving, cannabis is struggling, and one seedling just didn’t make it. A few transplant lessons here. 17:45 Mustard Greens Mustard greens were stunning—but secretly sabotaging my fava beans. Learn about allelopathy and what I changed. 18:25 Peas Peas are popping! I’m harvesting for shoots now and getting supports in place for vertical growth. 19:26 Fava Beans This fava plant nearly died from frost and mustard competition. Now? It’s thriving. Here’s what changed. If you're gardening in Zone 6B or anywhere with unpredictable spring weather, this video offers real results, hands-on solutions, and a look at how I manage setbacks and keep momentum going week after week. 📍Want to see what growing a garden in Massachusetts looks like week-by-week?
