Getting so excited I can't wait! MONDAY is the day I can officially start planting some of the more tender plants. I have been waiting for this day since last fall.

| We're usually safe around Mother's Day as well, though this year almost everything is already in. Just a few more things to do this weekend :) |

I can't believe I forgot to plant spinach, I hurry and planted some seeds with the strawberries. I was reading they make good companions, I am hoping its not to late in the season for spinach.
|
| With the weather this year, "anything could happen". Good luck, I hope the spinach grows well. |

| I think you should be able to still get some before the weather gets too hot. I have to replant quite a bit of mine this week - the package I planted had really poor germination. |

| Glad you got some planted. You're making spinach noodles? Hmm...I can think of a lot of ways I'd rather use spinach but maybe I should try it. I just planted malabar spinach today which is a hot weather variety for here in TX. |

Has anyone grown Chamomile, I love Chamomile tea and I thought it would be better fresh.

| I've grown it before but it is pretty finicky. It didn't do well here in Texas. I think it is just too hot in the summers but you might have better luck where you are at. |

| I think I'm going to try it. I just need to find some where that grows them around here, so I can buy a plant. |

I thought I killed our raspberry canes, but today I found some shoots growing out of the ground next to the bare cane. I was totally shocked and glad I didn't rip them out of the ground.

| I am hoping some of the other canes send up some starts too. |

Everything is covered and now I'm hoping it all survives.

| What did you use for a non-stick liner... I mistakenly used wax paper once and that was a mistake. :( |

| I don't think I grabbed the right thing but it worked, one side of it was like tin foil and the other side was a paper like material. Reynolds non stick pan lining paper. |

While trying to figure out where to place my mamouth sunflowers, I came up with a idea that may or may not work. I'm going to grow my sunflowers next to my tomato plants and use the sunflower stems as stakes for my tomatoes, I can tie the tomatoes to the

I would be careful here, the sunflowers are really bushy, and might shade the tomatoes to much. We have stalks from past years sunflowers and they could be sturdy enough for tomatoes... We were think... more » |

| They do have sturdy stems, but we find they are sturdier after they die and dry. The actual stems have a hard time holding up the sun flowers sometimes. They are awesome, though, we grow them every year. |

Growing up I always provided a little garden space from my mom for me to grow things. As years have gone by and now I'm married, we have survived many times living off our garden. Someday I would love to own my own green house and teach people the benefits o... growing your own garden.
