RobinD said:Robert, loved your thoughts! I was very surprised at the watermelons I grew....they were larger than I expected....and sweeter.....but it was a very hot summer! I don't think Fava beans grow well in the north....I think of them as a southern veg.....same with lima beans.....wish I could till the garden & plant a cover crop like rye, but I have to rent both a tiller & a handyman, so it gets too costly for me....Yes, I wish it was March, not October.....don't much like the thought of a hard winter.
