Not good friday

We planted a little stuff yesterday Betty. We had rain last night and more now as I post. It will be too wet and cool on Friday. When the ground dries, it will be time for the first sweet corn, and a few early squashes, cukes, and beans. The first mater plants are ready now.

I'm envious! :lol: I'm looking at more than likely another 2 weeks from today before any of my root crops go in, shooting for April 20th (dark nights/new moon) to get them covered up. Glad to hear that you guys have got so much going now though!

We got 900+ onions and 600+ hills of taters in.
Looking like it will be a little while for maters and peppers her though :lol:

Brandon , you may be better off waiting . We have done that and then hit wet weather so we decided to just go ahead this time . We are still eating potatoes from last year.

Same here Brandon.

I've got taters coming up, so are the squash, carrots and onions. Took a chance and planted popcorn early, it's about 2 inches tall now. Tomatoes and beans along with sweet corn and peppers are gonna wait a bit longer.

It has never been so dry and warm so early in Sask. so I planted a row of potatos yesterday. About 3 weeks ahead of my normal early planting. Soil was good and dry on the surface so I figured I would risk a row anyway. Today is raining , cold and miserable with forecast of snow overnight. Thats Sask. weather for you. :shock:

We have about 200 to 300 mater plants ready to plant along with 4 squash types and 2 cuke types to transplant, but will wait for a few days . 35 predicted by morning with scattered frost, upper 30s Sunday morn, and another cold shot in 3 to 4 days. We have everything covered tonight with cloth in addition to the glass, and will wait to plant to plant when it warms.
