Looking good. The pros down here use black plastic for tomatoes and peppers. They lay down the waterlines, mound up the dirt, roll out the plastic and plug in the transplants. {the fields are open now, $7.00 a bucket for you pick. I foresee a tomato pie and some salsa in my future}View attachment 3696729

Wow, hops does get tall. Everything is looking good. I've had some brown spots on my curly peppers, right where they curl up. Not sure if I have a picture.My mini garden this year. What a fail. I usually do much better.

Found some radish, onion, and carrot seeds from those kids projects where you can watch the roots grow. Well the kids are 16-18 and don't think they give a sh*t about the seeds. So I tossed em in some dirt.

i just went out and threw in some canteloupes seeds.. i had an open row, and figured why not?I put a few more pepper seeds in trays yesterday. Plus some cilantro and Armenian cucumber.
Planted more Muncher cucumber seeds in the ground yesterday also.
This morning {in the pouring rain} I planted a row of Armenian cucumber and two of Acorn squash seeds in the ground.
Not exactly garden, but I transplanted the lemon tree I had picked up at Lowe's last week.
I've never heard that. I only do about 6 {short} rows per planting. Corn doesn't last long, so you need to plant every 3 or 4 weeks if you want it to last the summer. I picked corn again today. 2 or 3 more pickings, and this patch will be played out. But my 2nd planting is doing so much better than the 1st one did. Having the soaker hoses laid down has been the biggest thing, I think. That and not having to wash the frost off them when they were little. I wasted lots of time by starting so early, but I had to get going or bust. Next year I will try to be smarter in my enthusiasm.i never grew corn before, do you need a lot of room for it? my mom always told me you need quite a few rows of corn in order for it to germinate..
lol, i was thinking it looks like you got a good jump on your garden, at least compared to me, but it was kinda warm in march here in the east coast, then come april, it was cold and rainy for almost the entire month, so i didn't get to put it in to late april again this year, despite a warm march..I've never heard that.

I was early. It was all good right up until the late frost. I used the sprinklers to wash it off the plants. Other than a few peppers I missed washing off, I didn't lose anything. But it slowed everything down big time. My 2nd planting of corn is about 3 weeks old, and some of it is a foot tall already.lol, i was thinking it looks like you got a good jump on your garden, at least compared to me, but it was kinda warm in march here in the east coast, then come april, it was cold and rainy for almost the entire month, so i didn't get to put it in to late april again this year, despite a warm march..
