[Ag-eq] Useful garden things I bought this year

[Jewel]

In the next day or 2, I will be planting next year's spud crop and half a dozen tomatoes of various 
varieties.
Having mentioned, albeit ever so briefly, potatoes, Tracy!  how did your first:  I think it was * 
first: homegrown potato crop turn out?

Hello Tracy

I'm sorry I didn't answer your message sooner. I was very interested to read of your cold frames and 
your sprinkler system. I have also heard that if you only water the garden plants and you don't 
water in between the rows that you end up with a lot less weeds.

Are you still able to grow anything in the cold frames this late in the year?

Did you freeze or can any of your vegetables
