I used to be a foreman for a landscaping crew, I loved the hard work, but hated having to deal with my crew, half the time they were late, never showed up, or just didn't work period. With a good group of guys it can be real fun.

I didn't know you had a green thumb. Stay away from that cannabis.

I've got 24 rows of sweet corn planted 6 rows will be ready in about 3 weeks...12 in about 2 months then the other six about a week after. need to plant six more in a week. Four rows of roma snap beans (flat ones), four rows of bluelake beans(round), half a row of yellow crookneck and zucchini squash. the other half in cucumbers. two rows of red bliss potatoes, 1/2 row of various tomatoes (cherry/roma/ugly/homestead),the other half in hot and sweet peppers. Half a row of cantelopes (ambrosia hybrids and banana melons) then the other half in watermelons. All rows are approximately 170 feet long.
