Looks like it will be another late start again this year. First the weather has not cooperated. We got a pile of snow last Saturday, and more is in the forecast for tonight. I also can't seem to shake the health problems. I got hit with a big kidney stone 3 weeks ago. I have never felt pain like that before. The docs put in a stent and tried to dissolve it with medicines but that didn't work. So on the 10th they are going to try to blast it to pieces with high intensity ultrasound. (7th trip to the OR in 9 years)Plus they found that I have gall stones that will likely have to come out sometime. In the meantime I am not tolerating the stent well and can't do much garden preparation. Maybe if things dry off Jacob can get started for us.
Thanks to some generous growers we have our best seed lineup ever. Plus we are going all out on the long gourds this year. Look for the Anamosa growers to make a real run at the gourd record.
