Hello all from Louisiana! I am getting somewhat acclimated and a friend of mine is getting some planting success with some tomatoes and basil etc.... I am doing the trimming and lawn work to get used to basics . Lot’s of clay down here as opposed to the rich top soil in Maine that I was accustomed to , butit seems to me that I should be able to grow just about anything down here with the climate as it is!

Indeed-good climate. We have clay soil in Mo. You will need to get some organic stuff into that in order to grow good veggies.

Glad you are getting acclimated in Louisiana. You’ve got a good climate now for things like sweet taters and okra so might take advantage of those. IMO, it’s really nice in the south since we can almost garden year round. Hope you continue to enjoy :)
