Re: Planting Question -- answered

Plant 9 bush beans to a square, 8 pole beans and 2 cucumbers. Do you have
the book? There is a guide in the back of the book on how many to plant in
each square. Most libraries have the book if you do not want to buy it. I
do not know if there is a web site, perhaps this list should think of
sponsoring one that at least has an FAQ. Check Lycos or Alta Vista for a
web site.
