when are you sowing your garden this year?

Bucket potatoes are awesome however I found out that not all potatoes produce a lot that way. Last year I had yukon golds and fingerlings. I use boxes and the fingerlings grew the entire 4ft deep box but the Yukon's only grew in the bottom layer.

My boxes are built from fence pickets with 2x2's to nest each level together. As the plant grows, I add additional layers and more dirt.

Start small

Then add layers

Partial harvest.

My cousin grew potatoes on his concrete driveway in some hay one year. I'm sure the neighbors loved that.

Someone mentioned the late freeze last year. That's why its always good to wait. I only planted 4 tomato plants early last year (just as a test) but they all froze.

Here was the weather on 4/28/13

I wish my seedlings were big enough... they are seriously slow.


Quite discouraged this weekend, when trying to ease the trays of seedlings outside, the greenhouse shelves got blown over. Some seedlings didn't survive and many are damaged.
