Name: Dr. Demento Jr.
Minnesota (Zone 3b)
Every thing I fully pre-intended to plant down South is now in the garden.
I planted the potatoes, 98.6 percent carry overs down there, and then uncovered the roses and put the leaves on the potatoes.

I planted the potatoes in the lessor side of the garden because I did not want to have to cart the leaves any farther than absolutely necessary.
The South garden was HEAVILY hit with 30-0-10 fertilizer because I had it and was curious to see if that makes any difference.
Garden was roto-tilled twice, partly for weed control the second time, so it is mixed into the soil.

I planted some ButterCup Squash and a pot of cucumbers but as of now the rest is Corn and Potatoes.
Corn planted was:
World's Largest Giant Corn Seeds
Seneca Red Stalker
Tuxepeno
Hickory Cane
Boone County White Dent
Goliath Silo Field Corn
Eureka Ensilage Dent Corn.
Zanadoo Sweet Corn
Martian Jewels Sweet Corn
Tuxana Sweet Corn
Double Red Sweet Corn

Plots are unevenly sized but on average, guesing, Seven by five.

My neighbors gave me a packette of Sun Flowers, so I did transplant two volunteer Sun Flowers and planted six Mammoth Sun Flowers.
I have two small open spots I may put some thing else in but as of now I am far more concerned about enough rain and the stinkin Turkeys.

Today I start to finish the North Garden. I tip my hat to you.
