About Me:
lived here 18 years now and still cling to the east coast ways. I can't get it into my head that planting in August when it's 110 is the time to do it! So I generally start plants indoors in January and plant them out and about all that lives and produces is tomatoes, squash and a few other poor quality things. I can grow a decent tomato and have even had enough to can at times.
