Hard though when it isn't the norm though.

Still rubbing it in I see. I would love to have full time help, but even with the unemployment rate so high, I cannot get it - reliable help that is.

Norm is the operable word on the rainfall - and your zone. With all the rain, we have also had "whiplash" temperatures , sometimes from the 50s daytime to 80s daytime ,overnight, several times in a week.

I love it here, though.....and I love a challenge! Besides, if gardening was easy, everybody would do it - and we wouldn't be so special

Ours is sprouting beautifully! We will mulch it when temps get cold enough. W8 - how can you plant it wrong?

I am making a list of things for the neighborhood kid that helps me to do- unless this next coastal storm hits this weekend. Now that school has started and hunting season and rockfish season are here, he only works a few hours Sunday afternoons.
