I am SURE your garden will love the extra sun this year too! Maybe you can try making a "caveman blueprint" map for the new sun pattern in your yard. Early spring is a good time to do that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06508817676467092661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164770464338274753.post-12154961064145153392013-01-27T18:07:35.984-07:002013-01-27T18:07:35.984-07:00I've had pretty good luck with tomatoes.

Corn is hard in Okla. We seldom get the rain we need for it. But I love fresh corn on the cob!<br />cyndikm@windstream.netCyndihttp://www.facebook.com/cyndi.hawkinsmarshallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164770464338274753.post-45253680841490303752013-01-26T10:57:16.496-07:002013-01-26T10:57:16.496-07:00We have our house on the market but I may just hav...We have our house on the market but I may just have to have a few container veggies.

I always went by the last frost date (usually April). I will be trying it differently this year and see if I do not get a better yield. We also made a huge change in our yard and took out our only big tall pine trees, now our garden gets even more sunlight.
