Pat B:
We planted a 100' row of okra, a few tomatoes and peppers and some zinnias for color this weekend. Now getting a good rain to water it in, about 1 3/4" since yesterday morning.
Haven't done a big garden for a few years after deer, crows, ground hogs(who would have thunk they eat tomato plants and okra plants) and late blight(looks like frost hit the veg over night in late summer) put a hurting on the garden over a 3 or 4 year period.
We already had spinach growing over the winter(under a cloche) and replanted it this weekend.

Here are my potatoes that I planted in last year's target bales. So far, so good. We will see what they look like in August or September. I also have Tomatoes, Garlic, Jalapenos, and basil planted. Around my yard there are also grapes, two apple trees (one of which produces primarily arrow shoots), oregano, rosemary, and some raspberries.
WhistlingBadger:
Taters look good, Jeff. Might have to try that next year. Keep us posted on how they produce.

I like that.
Mine are in dirt.
Have had a cool wet spring. Have a azz load of lettuce of different variety and Huge radishes. Arugula in first plantings is about ready to go to seed. Getting pepery but have more in staggered planting dates. Cabbages are heading up now.
Melons are up as well as summer squash.
Got to get rest of my tomatoes & peppers in!!

Got hops up over 6' (Mt. Hoods). Raspberry plant should bloom soon, likely the new buyer will have strawberry shortcake and/or blueberry pie!
