I'm not going to plant any this year, when you can buy them for 6-8lbs for a $1, I'll go that route. Who does the grocery shopping at your house?? I sure wish they were that cheap. Plus, you can't make economic sense out of anything we do on the hunting an fishing forums. I should have add cooking and vegetable gardening to my profile. I just finished putting the onion sets in the ground. It's a good feeling to get something started. I'll put the potatoes in next and then take a chance on my tomatoes. I don't cover my tomatoes with a threat of frost. I pull them up for a night or two, and then put them back in.

I planted my onions a month or so ago, same time as my Grandpa. His onions are a few feet tall now, and extra thick. Mine are still 6 inches and super thin.

Hey Bill, what kind of taters do you plant? I planted red potatoes, and California whites. I tried yukon gold last year and didn't care for them. I barely got my seeds back.

Buy a farmers Almanac and plant seeds when it says to plant them. Plant on the wrong moon phase and they won't produce worth the water it takes to keep them growing.

Started some seeds today, I usually plant mid-March. Started the jalapenos, serranos, bell and banana peppers. Big red, beefsteak, celebrity, cherry and super sweet 100 tomatoes. I'll plant okra, squash, cucumbers, carrots, corn and green beans later.

Got everything in shape for planting the last two weekends. Here's the upper garden with onions planted. Also worked on my cucumber trellis. Will start on the tomato supports this weekend. Lower garden prepped with onions planted.

I do all kinds of stupid stuff to my garden like mushroom compost. I think they shorted me today. That didn't feel like four yards when pulling.

Got my 2 year old horse manure ready in my compost. Not hot anymore. Planted lettuce, beans, japs, cilantro, rio grand peps, heirlooms, and much more in my little greenhouse. Should be ready in 4 weeks to transplant.
