Vegetable Garden

Postby Don Miller » Tue Apr 25, 2006 4:48 pm

I just got through planting tomatos, peppers, squash, zuchini, egg plant, okra, butter beans and purple hull peas. I'm planning on planting a few hills of watermelons and cantaloupes later. Anyone else gardening this year?

Got my corn in the ground on the 8th and my okra in this weekend. Got some watermelons and squash to plant and might buy some tomatoes if I get a chance.

I planted three weeks ago. Peppers are already producing, and all the seeds are up out of the ground. Tomatoes will need stakes in another week or so.

I normally try to get everything in the ground by Easter.

I'm a little late for my normal gardening schedule, but got a whole bunch of tomatoes, some are already in cages. Peppers are starting to put peppers on, eggplants and herbs all look good, can't wait until we get some fresh veggies.

I planted tomatoes, bell pepper, squash, onions, okra, butter beans, purple hull peas, string beans, lettuce, and cucumbers in one spot and got sprouts every where. The watermelon and cantelope patch will be planted next week. Planted the other on easter weekend.
