A Little Help From My Friends

      This morning, I received a message from Elke Baxter.  She says,
"At our recent Master Gardener lecture it was suggested that if you plant your potatoes 2 weeks after Good Friday you miss the onslaught of Potato bugs.  Sounds like a worthy idea..."
     Thank you, Elke!  I am always interested in tips and info and like to see them posted here.  I learn something with every project that comes along.  Please, all readers of this blog, share your experiences and discoveries.
      We still have snow on the ground, so outside things are on hold.  Transplanted broccoli and alyssum yesterday.  So far, we are not seeing much difference in the test plots, between water and the hydrogen peroxide. 
     Sorry, I just could not help myself.  The potato beatles got me.
