I tried 4 inch peat pots for zuchinni two years in a row. I got small
plants and minimal late harvests both years. Thought it was the
weather, but maybe the peat pots were the problem. hmm. given that
we're talking zuchinni, maybe a small late harvest is not such a bad
thing...
What happens when you plant zuchinni in the ground in New England? Is
that the best way? When you plant using the paper bag pot, how do you
do that exactly, does the paper form a complete container or just wrap
the soil in a bottomless cylinder?
The ground was frozen solid in Acton Ma. USA last week.
