Anthony I cannot wait to report my findings. I'm sitting here with the garden tilled and ready just chomping at the bit to plant. But I've learned the hard way not to put any plants in the ground til the 1st of May. Being in the mountains the frost tends to get them.

I'm aching just to see what's happening under the 15 inches of snow left in my backyard, jealous that you're tilled and ready to act! |

AT, you only have 15 inches of snow? Hah! I can't even believe there's a garden out there! And I'm pretty sure we won't be planting here in Montreal before the end of May, first week of June.
