Marv.

On top of Brush Mountain, Pa.

We have talked the talk. Now it is near time to walk the walk. I am going to try for a start somewhere around the first of May. I need to get home from Florida first. I also plan on doing some grafts this year but no crosses. I don't have everything I need yet but I will order after I am home. Just need a few more things. I have not yet picked my final seed selection but for sure Domingo will be in there. Good luck to all. Let's kick Porkchop you know where this year.

Good luck Marv, and safe travels home. Looking fwd to kicking things off shortly, over next couple of weeks.

Likewise still short of a few bits here - given various lockdowns, that includes my usual compost - but see what we can rustle up.

Speak for yourself Brandon. My wife helps me grow tomatoes and everything else.

wife...glad she is out of my life. My daughter is trying to think of a way she can divorce her mother. Bad court, that said she has to spend a day per week with her. Maybe the obstinance of my daughter can improve the situation. i envy you that have a beneficial partner. It is what I wished for...but I am unlucky. If you have the person, that you really think is good...take care of her.

I am maybe two years from the rubber hitting the road. Have to get past this corona scare first. I know what I need to do...just need to get in a position to do it.

Just a crude joke for our dear pal who is stuck-in-the orange-juice-state.

Thanks Dawn, I apologized, because my personal issues do not belong here.My bad mood was because I had to spend some time with the ex. I will get thru the personal issues and in the meantime...i hope that my future comments will contribute more to the joy of growing.

I keep reevaluating my grow situation this year. What my plans were 6 months ago are no longer relevant with the corona situation. As long as my gardens are better this than last year, the direction is correct. Timing can change.

Should I have a limited grow this year, I will certainly be watching what everyone else does. Heres to a new WR this year, and new WR's every year after that.

I'm thinking of it as a challenge and a learning opportunity, to see what I can do with no soil testing, yikes!

Wishing everyone a good season, stay healthy out there!
