Re: Was Soil pH; Now Wisconsin Legends

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Ah Linda, your sig line exemplifies the problem I'm encountering.  Which is
the zone?  4b or 5a??  No one seems to want to take a firm stand on it.
About those long winters--when is the planting date and how long is the
season?  And, is the Dane County Farmer's Mkt. as fantastic as I've heard??
Doreen Howard
Zone 5b, formerly 9b, soon to be 4b or 5a!!
