Second week of April is the time to roll out the garden at my house(KC area). I would agree that Nubbs should prolly wait another week, or be prepared with an old ass bed sheet to cover it all up if a freeze comes.
I am planting all my stuff this weekend.
Also, a note on in ground stuff like potato and onions: I know a guy who uses 5-gal buckets for both and is very successful. He keeps doing it, so he must be on to something.
I am going to set up a few heirloom tomatoes, some G Beans, a bell pep plant, basil, and maybe some sugar snap peas. I am going to try putting them all in various pots this year, bunching them somewhat close together, and filling the voids between pots with cheap ass mulch. Heard good things. Less work than getting into the actual ground.
Love this time of year.
