I did check dates on my seeds, and I've gotten some other books for myself and from the library. I think I'll have to mostly learn as I go, but the lessons will be good for my boys.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02342743915340360009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22793740.post-69211573481834179852008-04-03T15:40:00.000-05:002008-04-03T15:40:00.000-05:00I must say I had to chuckle when you said that Tur...I must say I had to chuckle when you said that Turner is afraid of the shovel (aka a dirt "turner"). Good luck in your gardening endeavors! You mentioned that you bought lots of seeds. I'd advise you to check their planting dates on the back. It is too hot here to grow certain crops in the spring and fall - we're a bit backwards and grow, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuces, etc in the fall and winter. Tomatoes, peppers and okra are great in our heat. If you see the book, Successful Gardening in the Magic Rio Grande Valley, you may want to invest in a copy. It's old, doesn't have any pictures (just a few sketches), but it has a great calendar that will tell you when to do what here in the Valley. <BR/>Good Luck!Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03888999648897092221noreply@blogger.com
