Who's got one ? what are you growing ? and how's it coming along? Mine consists of sweet corn , cabbage , brussel sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli ,cucumbers, zucchini, peas, tomatoes , peppers , acorn squash, pumpkins, and assorted spices. The cold wet weather hasn't been very conducive to good growth so far for me. But with warmer weather in the forecast things should turn out. I hope those of you growing fair better.

Junkie I've made carrot pesto a few times. I get a lot of carrot tops plus all of the parsley that grows wild year after year, so I add that into pesto as well. Ever use cilantro in your pesto as well? I have LOTS of cilantro growing wild this year in my one garden. Can't remember if I spreaded seeds last year all over, or if the couple of plants I had last year dropped their seeds all over, but it's not just in one place in my garden. And dill, I don't have to plant those seeds anymore either. Those make excellent cover crops, sure beats pulling weeds!
I got my new metal raised garden installed yesterday. Put some dirt in it but still need more before its full. Also got 6 tomato plants and 4 pepper plants in the ground before the rain came last night. With lows in the 40's the next two nights i won't plant anymore probably until the weekend. Still lots of planting before I'm finished!
B@R I'm planting my cucumber seeds tomorrow, I have them soaking in water tonight. I'm going with the yellow cups we talked about. I'm going to use Clove oil as the attractant after watching some videos on a setup. I'll put them out when they sprout. Hopefully it works for me.
