Glenn,
You should plant in the northeasternmost part of the garden, and allow the
vine to travel in a soutwestern fashion. Why you ask? It is simple... You want
the vine to travel in the direction of the sun to give it the feeling that it is
trying to get the warmest temp it can by following the path of the sun. Worked
for me... Also, Your Dill squash seeds and long guord seeds were sent out
yesterday... Good Luck..
