I have never grown them but one of my favorite things is Chili Rellenos and I under stand they are most widely used for that. I can find all kinds of recipes for Chili Rellenos though. I will re check Burpee.
Thanks

My butternuts ran like they were cucumbers LOL.
Mine were inbetween the zukes and cukes, but they did quite well for the first time ever planting them and not knowing what to expect and the fact that the dogs dug up the first planting.

I read once that a weed is only a plant that nobody loves. That picture does kind of favor a goldenrod, just never seen them fall over like that. The ones that I used to have here were straight and tall till the goats ate them all.
East Tennessee here also, and Okra is doing great, and like you a few tomatoes here and there.
What I am looking for is apples, really would like to have some nice apples.

I don't have any info on hay bale gardening but I have never staked okra. It has a very stout stem. To me bush beans mean just that they are a bush type so no stake needed there and while squash does vine somewhat I don't think there is any need there either.

Great photos thanks for letting us see them. My green beans are gone now but setting in a jar on the shelf. Same with tomatoes. Thats why I enjoy looking at fresh stuff.
Thanks for the DUW explanation cause I was wondering myself.

Pat if they ever do put you in charge and you can straighten this mess out I will be happy to share my tomatoes with you. LOL We are almost in the ready to kill part for rain as this area is already 8 inches behind normal and finished 07 with a 17 inch loss.

I use quite a lot of those dates, as I am never too far away from my farmers almanac.
The cut hair for growth dates work. Last year my hair was short, very short, now is past my sholders. By accident I used the quit smoking date 15 years ago and had no problem quiting. The castration dates work...
