What did you do in the garden today?

Planted a rhubarb root stock last year and it came up quickly but something happened and it ended up dying, anyone have experience with rhubarb?
I had one (of three) look really sickly last year, so I dug it up. I didn't get the entire root, and it tried to come back. I'll see if it comes back this year.

I read that the main reason they don't make it is due to crown rot.
 
do you grow corn in pots or outside? I should probably sow corn early as they don't grow in heat.
I put it in one of my raised beds, then put a row cover on to keep the birds out of it.

I have a calendar that tells me when it’s a good time to plant here as well what I can harvest each month. We have very short growing seasons even though we can garden year round; it’s best to go with transplants except for things like corn, root crops and heat loving plants that will stay around longer.

The one I bought last year was from Gurney’s. I thought I’d take a shot and called them and they, without any resistance at all, agreed to send me another at no charge even though I was a couple of weeks past their guarantee. I always seem to see negative reviews of them but my experience has been good. In the past they’ve send incorrect items replaced with the correct ones and let me keep the errors. Once they actually sent a duplicate order and just told me to keep it.
