Some others planted... Frank the Tank- one of the best even though topped by a slug- it found a good home in the ground. A couple 4.05 Peine's again amongst the best. A couple yellow Delbruts. Probably nine or ten tomato plants total. I have a couple long handled dipper gourds and a Harrington long gourd in the ground, and the Foss orange AG genetics plant. All thats left to plant is some melons. I may till the ground (multiple times?)because so far in my experience watermelons have done better in' yes-til'l than in no-till... Everything else this year has been no- rototiller. Some plants do better and some dont. I would rather till than use insecticide but of course its tempting to just drop the entire arsenal on the bugs rather than learning to coexist. Most temptations are bad.
