Once put in the ground, some of the iron is hard to get out. ----good thing for backup equipment!
Gardens are good no matter what size they are! ---- Any extra space you can expand to will be great!
I have only 1 row 225 feet long of onions this year, normally have 7 rows. More spuds this year than last, trying to keep acres down, BUT not sure how successful that gonna be! lol! Planting is easy, weeding an cultivating is the hard part.
Later on the sweet corn, green beans, and other stuff will go in. Our last frost date is between Apr. 23 to early May, so gotta wait a bit yet on some of the stuff. Soil temps are still cold. ground getting dry and hard here already, so might have to start right off hauling water to the garden this year. Neighbor is filling his 10,000 gallon tanker and will let me get water again this year.

Virginia wants to can several quarts of green beans this year so will plant them here close to the house in the window garden. Going to try summer squash again this year too. Want to freeze-dry a bunch of them, also some eggplant. Will plant a package of cucumbers just for the heck of it, usually can give them away if we have too many.
