I took my tomatoes and eggplant out and planted the squash, okra, onion, radishes and bell peppers on 4/27.
Today I planted some herbs and had to re-plant my bell pepper as it never came up. My onions are not doing anything either.
I have to get some barley hay bales to clean up the algae. We have been looking for some pebbles that won't make holes in the liner and that will keep the algae at bay.
I used y'all's bug trap idea after picking off all the leaves that the bugs have eaten. I sure hope it helps. We are going to pick up some thuricide as you suggested last year Jerry and Dan.
The cows ate all the leaves except the squash.


My okra is up, I planted it Wednesday so it's been five days but the packet say it should take 12-14 days
I guess all the rain we had over the weekend really sped things up. I have around 300-400 pink eye purple hull peas and around 500-600 more seeds to plant
But the most exciting thing this week has been my chinquapin chestnuts flowering! I planted them three years ago as saplings when they were just a couple feet tall, now they're over five feet.
