Good luck this year! Nothing better than home grown cole crops ... they have so much more flavor than those that you buy in the grocery. Do you intend to start your seeds inside now, or are you planning to direct sow?
I will get sprouts to set out locally from our hardware store (brocolli and cabbage). Last year the brocolli variety I planted had no worms, which is extremely unusual. I forget the name, though. I let one head go to seed so I could possibly plant it this year, but of course I can’t find where I put them. Anyway, the brocolli variety only put out the central head, rather than the central head with off-shoots, which also is unusual. If I put out a different variety this year, it’ll be OK for that reason.
I start tomatoes, squash, cukes, pumpkins, and peppers from peat moss starter cups. Dixie Lee peas, 6 weeks peas, butter beans, green beans, and corn are direct planted. Usually I’ll buy 3 or 4 specimens of a particular tomato variety that I can’t get the seeds for: Parks Whopper. Best tomato I’ve ever grown, hands down.
No problem on me having a garden!
But we will have to put up $500 non refundable deposit for having Cashmere ... I can understand that. But thought it was high. She likes her new store and her job. But told me that Wal-Mart is not helping money wise in our move! I am so pissed off about that! We are not wealthy and this move will be very difficult for us.
