Grisseldog: I plant Pink girl and Red Bounty tomatoes.On the fertilize i use 19-19-19 I put out 1 pound of fertilizer for ever 3 foot of row. I put half the fertilizer out when I put lime out in January and the other half of the fertilizer out just before I lay the plastic down. I also inject urea thru the drip system each week after planting.

Starting my seeds indoors tomorrow! I feed myself, parents and grandmother so I plant in succession. So normally 3 plants a week per vegetable and I do this for about 5 weeks and that gets us through the summer

We dodged the heavy snow they got north of us but we are long ways from seeing any seeds getting put in the ground. Strawberries look good as does the rhubarb, Have not seen the asparagus yet however.

Have the 1st planting of potatoes and onions in on Good Friday (tradition only). We had the April blizzard as usual on Easter Sunday but the tubers will do ok even with these 20 degree nights as the ground temp is in the 40's. I use cover crops and and NO-TILL plant my 2 gardens of 1.75 acres and have for 8 years. Fertilize with my sweet clover/oats or rye cover crop with minimum of synthetic N3 for the sweet corn. Tomatoes, peppers, beans, pumpkins, squash and peas get very little if any inorganic fertilizer, Have tried all types/systems of gardening, from solid tillage to single straw bales, compost, mulch etc.etc. and finally realized that (along with the therapy) the soil, weed suppression, energy savings, and costs are better served with a No-Till -Cover Crop scheme for this country. Research is proving that on the larger scale feed grain farms also. Herbicide is also a component but not as much as "huggers" would have you believe so until someone comes up with a better system this is what I am using. P.S. had to finally kill the strawberry patch as they had become a WEED with the No-Till and I could not keep up with them! ! ! !

Garden plant suppliers are having a banner year. People buy warm weather plants and plant them in March, then again in April, only to have them killed twice. Mothers Day is early enough where I live in Western NC.

I have potatoes up now but I have to cover them a few nights per week.

I will be starting to build a (newgarden) old field in a week or two .I will get a few pics of the spot where it will be. I would like to have some good information on how others think this would work out for me. Pics to follow in a couple days.

Patrice, what your method for growing garlic? Mine never does that well.

The wife and I put our garden in this past weekend. 36 bell peppers, 30 tomatoes, onions, squash, pickle bush cucumbers, beets, zucchini, & cauliflower. Thinking of adding some watermelons and muskmelons too.
