We have Robbins in the yard. It's two months early.

What does this say about this years weather?

i'm betting on continued whacky. which
means making some changes to the planting
plans.

i'll be growing less of the larger
beans that take most of the season to finish
and increase the planting of the smaller
types that finish sooner or those that vine
and produce when conditions are favorable.

last season the pinto, red and black
beans did well no matter where they were
planted. the edamame also did well in
most spots.

also will try some of the smaller types
of tomatoes.

oh, and get the onions planted earlier than
last year.

for landscaping projects i'll keep working on
the south side to deal with flash floods. i can
get most of it done in a week or two once the
ground thaws and it is dry enough. i'm expecting
it will be hot, dry and the once in a while
torrential rain.
