What grew best for you this year?

Message-id:
Basil went crazy here, as did carrots, radishes, peppers, watermelon (my
first year with that one), beets and tomatoes.
I had several other things in too...but seeing as this was our first garden
this year (grass there last year) it did pretty decently.
Got a good dump of 'poo' from my dad's barnyard and away went the garden!
Gonna dump again this fall for next year, better again next year I hope!
Also, we added to the garden, its 5 times the size of this year's 'patch'
now.
Got horseradish and garlic planted for next year already....gotta cover
it
this fall though for winter.
We live in eastern Ontario, roughly zone 4/5.
Cheers!

My basil did so badly that out of about 50 plants, I didn't even manage to get
the selected ones to provide seeds for next year. And even worse, I didn't
have enough to stock my freezer with pesto for the winter. This is totally
unacceptable and I'm considering a civil suit.
