Shit. My seed order just arrived and I can't open it until my wife gets home from work.

[HopeHoops]

Shit, shit, shit.

Is it Christmas yet?

The potatoes will ship separately along with a couple of back-ordered things. Wha!!

[Tsiyu]

1. And you are a kind partner to wait

lol


Hope your order is all you envision.

Crazy spring....this one.

What was backordered? I'm curious what's selling/tough to grow these days.

[HopeHoops]

2. I forget. The two potato varieties I REALLY wanted were out of stock.

I don't mind back-order from Johnny's. They give you one shipping cost and stick to it. I just need to get the A frame set up and start the sprouts. It's a bit early, but that gives me time to find the parts.

3. What happens if you do?

Why must you wait?

Inquiring minds want to know.

4. Only because she gets more excited about such things than I do. Friendship.

It's like getting a present, except she knows what's in it because we built the order together. She still gets all giggly and excited.

She's my girl.

6. Awww.

That's nice.

[HopeHoops]

7. She works her ass off every day. She deserves the thrill of discovery.

Well, we placed the order together, but it's still fun to open the box.

5. that's so cute.

8. I only placed 1 order so far.

From Burpee, for my Sun and Stars sweet corn.

I got it about 4 weeks ago, but I haven't opened it, just popped it into my cool, dry, safe spot until I need it.

Spring, spring, spring. My favorite time of the year.

[HopeHoops]

9. Yeah, well, we forgot a few things. Time for order #2.

The potatoes, basil, and one of the radish varieties are on back-order, but that's fine.

10. I am trying to decide what type of corn to plant this year

What would you say it the best features of Sun and Stars sweet corn?

[Denninmi]

11. Flavor and brix (sugar content).

By far the best, sweetest corn I've ever found. Of course, as they say, your mileage may vary -- people's taste in corn seems to vary radically. I know many people who like "old fashioned" heirloom type corns that aren't very sweet, or even young field corn. I'm partial to extremely sweet corn, so I like the Sh2 corns.

12. Thanks

I like yellow corn over the white, but sweet is always good!
