ok it's April 2, and i'm going to start this year's garden photo record. exciting stuff here! heh heh

we had big snowstorm 2 nights ago. now it's gone and the garden is cleared off for planting. the scraggly thing is sage, it did come back last year, we'll see. the braced-up trees are my apples and i'm waiting for buds. the little green stuff is parsley who somehow lived through the winter, and some strawberry plants. there is also a big hole, not shown, that lardbutt the groundhog kindly dug for me so he can wait for the new veggies.

no. no tiller. just a large son.

my Mom kept a cup of bacon grease by the stove too. it's a Southern thing.

i could never kill him. he and his harem wait for me every morning. he's a thing of impressive beauty. and 'tude! hahaha

many years ago our Pilgrim forebears and the Wampanoag Indians here where i live ate his kind, because they didn't have Butterball.

Need some advice. I decided to try my hand at growing vegetables. I chose zucchini, cucumbers and tomatoes. I put them in plastic pots that are about 1"X1" and about a foot deep. You're going to laugh, but being the virgin planter that I am, I put THREE packets of seeds in each pot!! I now know that was way too much, as I was informed after the fact.lol So I was told that farmers generally lay more seeds then needed, then go through and *thin* them out, by pulling the ones that didn't grow as good. MY PROBLEM is that ALL of them are GROWING...GREAT!! Such as my luck. So I am wanting to know two things...#1. When should I thin them out?(I will have to throw away about 15+...seems like murder.lol) and #2. I would like to leave the veggies grow in the pots and just *stake* them...but I need to know if my pots are large enough?

Thanks for any advice you can heed my way

One inch by one inch pots? Hahahaha! No, they cannot stay in them. LMAO. For tomatoes, your pots should probably be at least 18 in. in diameter.

Cukes & zucchini spread like crazy. They need space.

Good luck.

I can't wait for Maggot to see this.
