Sure hope your seed don't rot in the ground. Still terribly wet out this way and got 3 more inches of rain Monday.

If it stays just like it is for a few days and they germinate...shouldn't be a problem. The ground was sooooo just right for plantin. We didn't get anything other than just a tad of rain Monday and yesterday. Wasn't too wet to get in there with the tractor...and the lil garden tractor.

I'm getting glassy eyed just thinking of it. Razz Razz Razz You'll be eating corn about the time ours comes out of the ground! I'm planting my onions seeds this week, and my pepper and tomato seeds in about 10 days, but it won't be in the garden, it'll be under lights in the house. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Oh well, it'll come in due time....

No hope of planting before the 20th of May and frosty things can't be outside before June 15th, but we can catch up with the longer hours of sunshine. Nothing better than fresh homegrown produce.
