Looking good! Do you think those flowers will be ready by the end of this month?

BigVanVader · April 9, 2018

Nah, I wish. We are aiming for Mothers day then a second round on the 4th of July.

That stinks on the loss of 1000. But, the risk is what we signed up for, when you get into the business end of it.

But otherwise all is looking great.

WOW! Gorgeous plants, BVB! I'm looking forward to hearing of your progress this year.

So busy can hardly update. Plus new phone & comp. and both are taking some getting used to. This Spring has been insane and my tomato plants look worse and I have less selection than ever before, yet already recouped all money spent and sold nearly double the plants this month compared to last year. Our farmer friends hosted a plant sale event and we did very well. Here are some pics of the goings on.

Looking good man. Its nice when we have been setting on plants to finally start moving them, and have the cash as a reward for the work.

You mention about the "look" of your mater plants. Funny thing is, we as the a grower and connoisseur, are far more critical then the average consumer.

outstanding work on the flowers, and what a smile on your assistant.

hooray for set it and forget it.

I know one thing... Cora is growing like a weed! It all looks wonderful.

BigVanVader · April 25, 2018

Thanks y'all. She sure is. She has such a personality too! I'm truly blessed to have such an amazing family.

Good luck with your season. Your daughter is a doll.
