Notes to Self

1. Chard is pretty but we don't eat it - don't grow next year


2. One cucumber plant is plenty


3. Tomatoes need more than 1 square foot of space (more like 2x2)


4. Don't be lazy and neglect to pinch off suckers on tomato plants


5. Pole beans are better than bush beans but they need poles (easy)


6. Corn and sunflowers grow well together but put sunflowers in the front or they will face away from the garden.


7. Watermelons like to take over the world; give them space to do so.


8. Calendula needs more than 1 square foot (more like 2x2)


9. Marigolds are awesome


10. I am too busy to water potted plants every day.  Don't bother planting in the summer time


11. Potatoes are easy; plant more


12. Ocra seems unhappy.. not really sure why.  The small harvest I've gotten has been very tasty
