I have used Burpee for many years and have been well satisfied. I have not heard anyone mention "planting by the moon" for years. My parents were great believers in such. The Old Farmers Almanac was the only "garden book" that I recall seeing in our house when I was a kid. My Dad always planted potatoes on Good Friday, even if he had to clear away the snow to do so. oldjohn@juno.com John Orwick El Monte, CA On Thu, 6 Mar 1997 16:30:03 -0600 "Dennis L.
