Congratulations Michelle... I've read somewhere that potatoes are
always good to start on new soil and that they even taste better....
I've also hear there's an organic weed inhibitor made from corn and
wondered if corn meal would work... There's a saying that one year of
tilling is 7 years of weeding...
Anyone know if these are true ?
Or are they just tales ?
Sincerely,
