Thank you, Shelli
I have been intending to start a vegetable garden for over a year now, and planned to do a square-foot garden as it is lower maintenance. Last year, Jeff and I set up the beds, and then I got pregnant. And nauseous/sick. No garden then. So, this year, I had planned to do it and planned to do it, and then saw it as too late.
I was mentioning this to my sister the other day, and she has now given me THE BIGGEST kick in the butt to do it. She ordered seeds and plants for me. So, now I have NO excuses and if I fail, I'm wasting her money. So, I need to go and weed that garden area (easy to do, but still not fun -- there are SPIDERS in there. Ok, they are Harvestmen, but STILL. There could be widows or wolf spiders -- we have those around.
Here's what she got for me:
Seeds from www.Krazykeithsgardenshed.com:
Kentucky Wonder Green Bean
Large Sunflower Mix
Italian Basil
Lucky Broccoli
Nelson Carrot
Legend Corn
Green Ice Lettuce

So, how do I plant this stuff??
