How I plant my pumpkins & squash

I  dig a small hole and refill with this.

I then plant my seeds  (3) in each "hill"

Up pops a plant...surrounded my straw "mulch"

The hills with seed and mulch

Repeat a couple hundred times!!!

Of course, I allso grow hundreds of plants in peat pots.  Then, the plants (pots and all) go through the same process.  This weekend Strawbeary and I will be busy putting in about 100 bush acorn squash plant along one of the gardens boarders...good thing we have mama n' papa bear to help!
