OK, I have already used 4 trailer loads of compost on the wife's projects and now I have to wait to get more for the pumpkin patch, that's no problem we will be hauling that this week.
I had started 5 seed's around the 8th of March, they were very old seeds since the last time I received seeds was in 03.
An 11 86.4 Whittier 02, a 1247 handy 03, and two 1157 Wernher 03 and then there was this 777-03 Troy squash.
none of the pumpkins sprouted so I started 3 other seeds I have,
a 1057 Werner-03, a 1082 (dmg) Pugh-03 and a 1004 Werner-03. nothing yet on these yet but the 777 Troy popped up so I stuck it in a hill.
we will be hauling compost and prepping the area for the patch, I hope a pumpkin sprouts, the patch will be ready to go. (I hope)
it's raining off and on today but starting tomorrow we are supposed to have a couple of 80 deg. days (in April, go figure)
