Okay, I’ve got my store-onion roots planted. I am guessing I need a little slice of the onion a-top the root to feed the root a bit. Say, 1/4 - 1/2 inch? At least that’s what I tried.

Celery is not something that will grow here due to the rockiness and shallowness of the soil. I will have to work on preparing a bed to try planting the celery. That’s another good project for me to experiment with. I just keep hoping the Lord is good enough to give me enough time to do all these experiments.

Try things out and see what happens.

Where I am, tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, peas and lots of others do well if I just grow them in the ground.

Never had much luck with like cucumbers, though.

Last year, I planted cucumbers in a planter. And ended up with enough cucumbers to choke a goat.

So you have to find what works in your local area, and which plants like to grow next to other plants, etc.
