I got my potatoes planted today. We got 5# Yukon Gold and 3# Kennebec. We also took one of our huge, concrete reinforcement wire tomato cages and wrapped it with weed barrier and filled it with a good mix of soil, straw, compost and grass. We're going to get another 5# of Yukons and plant them in the cage. I am anxious to see how well they will do. If it works, no more trenching for me!

Looks like we may be able to till the garden tomorrow and get some stuff planted. Nice day here today, high 60s and warmer tomorrow. No rain for a few days. With the time change I am planning on spending at least one hour, maybe one and a half in the garden after the baby is picked up. Mostly concentrating on weeding, mulching. I'll use the weekends for planting.

I planted three more kinds of tomatoes yesterday, Aunt Ruby's German Green, Barlow Jap and Zogola. My other tomatoes are ready to be potted up.
