    No worries newgrow, just wanted to make sure all was cool. I had a bad year last year with my first try at pretty much everything and got a total of 12 fruit out of 100's of plants.
    Have to make sure I share all I have learned so gardening can be more fun for others, including myself. :-D

    If you live in the USA, your county extension service offers soil testing at a nominal cost. The testing is done at your local land grant college and you will normally have the results within a week. Everyone should have a soil test done annually but at lest every other year.

    Hi New-- Well hole prepping isn't 100% necessary, but it's the way that I have had success. I know some guys that plant them just exactly like you do.

    This hole prepping thing I do not do with all things, just certain ones where I feel it is important to do so.

    Frost bite or too much water or a combination of the two !! Cucumbers and tomatoes should come back with a little warmth and drier conditions !! Onions are about to go to seed and should be pulled and new ones planted !! And indeed they are planted too deep !! I replied to your other post about them !!
