Finally dried out enough to get the first 200’ of spuds in today.
Thunder storms tonight through Saturday, but maybe next week I can get the rest in, as well as get the peas planted.
About time to start getting warmseason seeds planted indoors for transplanting later.
Oh, BTW, the last snow storm did manage to set new records in the area. Most notably, Rapid City broke their previous season accumulation record by 2+”, and came in way over double the 36” 30 year average accumulation at over 82”. Previous 80” record was set around 1950, and the records go back to the 1880s.
Excellent! 200’ of taters in hills should pretty much take care of your potato demands, and a good chunk of your overall food requirements for that matter.
