| Ok, We've planted our seeds for this year. I'm wondering what varieties others are doing this year. I haven't actually written down what we have started so far, but it includes: Marianna's Peace, Green Grape, Early Girl (DUH!), Mr. Stripey, German Johnson, Orange Russian, Sweet Baby Girl, Super Sweet 100, Red Currant, Yellow Currant, Persimmon, and ??? No clue what we'll end up with, something always seems to happen to at least one of the varieties we start. Last week quail got up on the patio table and were munching on one tray before I could shoo them away. |

| I am only doing a couple of types of tomatoes, some type of roma and some type of cherry. Off hand I can't recall their names. I made the mistake of letting my kids do the planting and now have around 40 tomatoe plants growing, and we only need about 15. Even if I wanted to, I now have no room to do any other types. The other thing we have growing is Jalapeno plants and serano plants. The jalapeno plants are already flowering, and one I believe actually is starting to grow a pepper. I could be wrong though. |

| I finally have flower buds on my red and yellow currants. We have about 20 tomato plants out, all still in Wall O'Waters. I still have three plastic tubs of little potted tomato plants, and a red wagon full of 1 gallon pots. I know we don't need and can't possibly water all of them. Whatever of the potted ones I'm going to keep I'm going to have to decide soon. I went to Home Depot out in Spanish Springs today and they had NO W O'Ws.... Will have to hit WalMart tomorrow I guess. All we have in so far are tomatoes. I never do well with peppers. Oops, I forgot, we do have some chard in, so far we've been able to keep the quail from eating it. |
