Re-tilled South Garden so I could plant corn; roto-tiller went pffft on last pass (belt broke).
Spent as much time sitting and thinking how-where I was going to plant as actuall planting; I found out I must have given the squirrels a lot of old seed last year as I still had a large cache but not as much as I had last year.
Put in :
Sweet Corn:
Double Red
Martian Jewels
Breeder's Choice
Kandy Korn
Country Gentlemen
Field Corn:
Aunt Mary's Dent
Casto Family Heirloom
H&M Yellow Dent
Henry W. Wood Seed Co.
Black Sweet Potato Squash
Found a handful of Sarpo Mira potatoes , in a bucket, I am assuming I had saved for planting up North, so I brought them up to plant.
For once the North Garden will finish after the South; potatoes , tomatoes, chiles, onions are in up North but corn, radish, lettuce, squash are not in.
Sharon bought Batchelor's Buttons, Marigold and Zinnia I said I would like to put in but not sure where I will put them now.
May futher enlarge the berm and put some there.
Corn going in up North:
Sweet
Precious Gem --- A screw-up as I was at a true green house, looking for Cocoa Bean Hulls, and saw those seed packets were the last ones they had, of any breed, and mis-read-- I thought it was Precocious Gem but I have had worse.
Field Corn
Baxter's Yellow
Tait's White Gem
Green house had the cheapest, and very hard to find, Cocoa Bean Hulls, for $15 a bag; I bought ten, which was better than the two Sharon bought at a different green house for $18 a bag.
