We should start thinking about when we want to do some round-two planting. We went to Prairie Gardens to buy some stuff for our backyard garden yesterday and ended up getting some more tomato plants for the Parkland plot too, b/c we wanted to make sure not to wait too long -- plus we liked the idea of buying them small (read - "cheaper"), repotting, and then planting them later. I am gonna be travelling a lot in June, and planbreaker may have end of semester grading plus some of the same travels -- that said, I could do some planting on the morning of the 7th and/or the 13th. I think 2 half-days might be just about all we need to do, if we get a few people out. I could also do some evening stuff the week between the 7th-13th. What does everyone think?
By the way, M. was out at the garden the other day and said things were looking pretty good.

All of those times work for me. I'm pretty flexible in the coming weeks.

I'm pretty flexible as well although I'm pretty busy and probably wouldn't be able to commit to more than a half day at a time...what about the tilling /weed issue? We haven't really discussed the idea of bighting the bullet and tilling the second half. As much as I like the idea of holding true to our original plan, those weeds were monsters and I imagine they are only developing deeper roots...
I'm definitely up for some gardening time but I'm out for Sunday b/c I need to bake a cake for baby shower (another one). I think df is planning on going out anyway. I might head out there tomorrow or Monday and then another time next week or next Saturday. df and I leave for a long time on the 14th so I don't want to leave you guys with all the work...
as for the tiller, I'm open to whatever. the last time I was out there, the weeds seemed not as bad as I remembered but I don't have any broken ribs.
