We're on the same mailing lists! Got my Seymour Seeds catalog a few days ago. Lots of hard-to-find flower seeds in that one.
I wish I was physically able, I miss my garden. The local agriculture center is just up the road, I about live there in good weather.

Strawberry Watermelon 2g seed -- 85 days. [Selected from a Florida heirloom by Walt Childs and introduced by SESE in 1989.] 'Strawberry' is an excelílent garden variety waterímelon with intensely colored, strawberry-red flesh which ripens to within 1/2" of the rind. The texture is delicate and the sweet flavor is outstanding, distinctive, and the best we offer. The melons are long (8 x 20"), dark green, with darker green stripes. Fruits have fewer seeds and range between 15 and 25 lbs. Disease resistance is very good. 2 g Limit 2 Packets.
Howdy....
My family and I are new to gardening. I've been studying up on "Square-foot gardening" and we want to start a garden this year. Has anyone here had any experience with this type of gardening? Any tips would be great. We also want to use a lot of different heirloom seeds also and any advice on that would be great as well. Thanks.

just a bttt.
Planted tomatoes two weeks ago — just two, and put those under caps. The other six plants (all are Romas) sat in the plastic packs all week, somewhat protected. Last weekend planted the rest, and removed the two caps, while adding a beefsteak.
Also repotted a volunteer from last year, one that had come up in the compost pile, and had survived the frost. I’d cut out a nice green chunk, rooted it in an old wine bottle, and after it thrived a few weeks indoors, potted it, and kept it alive and kickin’ all winter. I’d repotted it once, but this current pot should be its home all season. It is protected by a wall of water.
Here in Michigan, garden transplants are done near the end of May.
Do they have any Oriental vegetables? My wife wants to try some, and I couldn’t find any after a quick search.

On Tuesday I planted flowers, a Brandywine tomato plant, a butternut squash plant, a buttercup squash plant, and replanted the potato plants which come up every year in the same old garden spot.
thanks neverdem.

Last night I dug out a sunflower volunteer and transplanted it this morning, along with a California Wonder sweet pepper plant, and a tray of catharanthus to replace some which had vanished (gophers?). All that remains to do is a partial flat of leftover marigolds, but then again, watch this space...
