   What zone in Illinois.  Sounds like zone 5 maybe.  It is usualy
recommended to seed spinach outside 5 weeks before last frost which I did
two weeks ago and have 30 little green things in the bed now.  Radishes go
out at 3 weeks before last frost which will be next in my planting list.
Tommorrow I need to start pepper transplants then tomatoes.  Next month the
work realy starts with corn squash and cukes.  I hope our local 5 ft roto
tiller man starts work real soon.  He makes 10 mins. work of a soded 20*100
ft. garden.  Talk about a quick 20 bucks.
