I am so easily influenced..Reading that, I thought, "ooh, nobody will be at Home Depot or Lowe's or Wally World this early,"
So, out the door, I went. At Home Depot, I bought jicama seeds, red onion sets, red seed potatos, asparagus (which I think goes into the ground in the fall here, not the spring)..
they must've seen me coming as most of these things were right where you go in the front entrance. Lowe's and Walmart didn't have anything except flower bulbs.
I thought jicama grew from slips..Didn't know it grew from seeds.
It’s sunny here, so it will be a beautiful day again here. Lowes opens at 7am and we were there about 7:05. They were dismantling the holiday stuff to make room for the seeds and stuff. We were in and out in time to catch the breakfast buffet next door and out of there in time to get an oil change at the garage, then on to Heb for food and meds and back here by 10. Whew, No more trips to town for a while, now to relax a bit before playing in the shop and looking for my grow bulbs and fixtures for starting seeds soon.
We are forecast for 25 on Sun night, and 22 on Mon night. But it will be sunny Mon and Tues so it wont seem too bad.
I have not read ahead to see if you have had any input on asparagus seed, but I have had excellent results getting asparagus established from seed. I always start it in small containers and then set it out in the field - I have never direct seeded in rows (although where I am at now, it self sows and I get feral asparagus). Usually I start asparagus seed in a greenhouses, about the time I start tomato plants. Then I set them out whenever I set out my tomatoes. If you are in the middle of Texas, you should not have to wait til fall to plant your asparagus.
