FH, since we are close in proximity, what dates are you planting corn and beans? Where is a good place to buy seed? Is it possible to plant corn with a spreader rather than a drill (only because I have a spreader and would have to rent a drill). Sorry for all the questions, but this year I want to be prepared. I sent my soil out for a test last week and should ahve the results next week. I never realized how importantt he soil analysis was. I wasted a lot of money last year trying to 'guess' at how to do things. This site is extremely informative and I can't wait to get started this spring.
