This is a picture of the seeds I have lined up for this year. Many thanks to grower (Cam) for coming through with some fine seeds for me to try out. Unfortunately, I only have room to grow one, so I think it will be the 1446 Eaton. If this fails to sprout I will try the 1124 Hester or the 1195 Vankooten.
Have to do some serious consideration soon on how best to go about sprouting the seeds, and whether or not I will buy and bury some soil heating cables.
On a side note: The neighbor just had some gardeners weed around his entire house. It was very wet outside so they pulled up a lot of his top soil with the weeds. I walked down and asked them if they needed a place to dump the compost/soil. Seems like the guy was more than pleased to dump his one heaping truckload right on my driveway. He also gave me one large wheelbarrow full of grass clippings which I dumped right on my pumpkin patch.
Now I just have to wheelbarrow the compost/soil up to the compost bins for next years use. Amazing how much leaf and garden clippings I can get from the neighbors. It's funny, when you ask them for their refuse at first they think your joking.
