Bean, pea, legume (& tomato) swap

[Aerial]

Tormato, I just checked, and crossed checked my pm. There's no "ALL" in there. I'm sticking to the 1 pm I sent regarding wish list. Trying to be "good" here. Thank you.

[Tormato]

Does that mean You don't want to see the bean list on Monday? I suppose I could just PM it to all of the other participants....















...and me.

[Aerial]

Erik would want to see it!

[Tormato]

That reminds me, when I post the list, have him view it, and then he can email me, or you can post here, or PM me (if it's not full), what he would like. Do you have my email (me, or the other me, thinking it's somewhere near the start of this thread)?

[Aerial]

I sent Erik a composite list of what's already posted by senders. Will remind him to check your updated list when it's posted.

Holy *, how many you are there?!! The yahoo email is no good?

[Raiquee]

haha you guys are too funny.

Tormato) I sent out your envelope today. $$$$$$

So, two 3' x 8' sub-plots, two 8' long trellises for each sub-plot, bean spacing of 6" = ~64 pole bean plants.

If doing pole limas, they need about 14"- 16" spacing.

You are such a good planner, that will work wonderfully!!!

Also, you can post what types you'd like, and what types you would not like back. Some people only want bush beans, others only want pole, some do not want wax, some only want flat podded "romanos", some want dry, some do not want dry, some do not want limas, etc...

Is "all"not an option to you or you or you?

Well, I do NOT want "all", so there!

While I am open to many new things, I am not overly fond of many of the lima beans for the most part; have grown the big mealy ones and the "baby" ones before, and think there are so many interesting beans to try and learn about ( see how I am working this into a continuing education thing? Good HUH?!!).

Though we do like big ol' lima beans cooked beyond death to creamy broth with onion, garlic and some smoked ham hocks....

Rob really likes the yellow wax "romano types" and he doesn't often say plant this or that - except for the Ha'Ogen melons* - that I like to try to make him happy.

I am looking forward to seeing the list, and in seriousness, thank you for all the work you do with the swaps, and they are so much fun!


* I still can't believe Rob are the last TWO melons that time. He normally doesn't do stuff like that, but he sure did that day- and was most happy, too, the dirty dog! AND had the nerve to try to pass it off as saving me from feeling bad just in case those melons went bad in the 8.5 hours I was at work.

[Raiquee]

My "want" list is:

Top pick purple hull pink eyed peas
limas
dragon tongue
I prefer bush over wax

So anything you want to send.

You are just being sooo jealous because I have enough heart to really looooove allll the beans!!

And tomatoes.


And squashes.

Corn, too.

and especially the melons, <sigh>.

Okay, I NEED a farm, LOL.

So many beans and so many choices!

Aerial, I don't think we need a bigger boat anymore. I think we need a really seriously big truck. But, between me and thee and some others, we might need a boat to be able to be someplace that is not heavily planted!!
