it's the best time of year ain't it? :D I still have alot to plant too. I'm gonna try some pole beans in big pots along my east fence. Think a 50 lb feed sack would be big enough?

They are only in 2 raised beds. Just so happens those are the ones I filled with Kellogg raised bed filler from home depot. Makes me think they came in the soil. I dusted with DE and ordered 3000 lady bugs from amazon. We will see how it goed

The rain got us as we were driving to our deer stand in a mule. Needless to say we were soaked by the time we got there. But the deer and turkey came out from the woodwork after it quit

We learned the hard way last summer how important trellised are. I'm going to run some cattle panels and plant all the tomatoes on them this year. As well as trellis the cucumbers. We can vet alot more produce if we manage space a little better.

Wow that's alot of gardening! Do you sell produce? This will be our second year. Just trying to offset our grocery bill and eat less processed foods. With a wife and 4 kids the groceries can get a little high $$$$
