Re: Anyone there?


Well,here in Southern Mississippi, its beautiful!!!!  Finishing up fall
gardens,of collards,turnips(white egg,purple tops)mustard(Fla.broadleaf)brussel
sprouts,radishes,rutabeggars,brocolli.Irish potatoes went in Feb.,along with new
crops of turnips,mustard.Feb.,brought Field corn,sweet corn,several snap
beans,field peas,squash,tomatoes.April brought
watermellons,cantalope,okra,cucumber,peanuts,etc.I built me a small
greenhouse,and went to school,the hard way,and done fair.I experenced things,the
books don't tell you,about small houses.Small greenhouses are GREAT PROBLEMS,---
temperatures up and down bad,and in my area,cooling is more important than
heating.I also had war with damping off,but whipped it,through books,and
thinking.We will enjoy all the things learned,and all the tomatoes we used as
experments(maybe 200)most will get a place in the field.If we get one tomato off
each we will do fine,but 10 of them already have plenty of marble size Better
boys now.We had field peas,fried squash,corn bread,fresh pork chops,tomatoes for
supper last night,now thats the reason for silence here.May God Bless!!! Jim
