TELL ME WHEN THE PECAN TREES BUD!


12 days after potting up
 After about two weeks in the greenhouse the plants are looking really good. The young seedlings have matured and now look like tomato plants.

My grandmother always told me to "plant tomatoes on Good Friday or when the Pecan trees bud, whichever occurs first." Since Easter is late this year and an early spring is expected I believe the Pecan trees will bud before Good Friday.

If you live in the Mississippi Delta, please keep a close eye on the Pecan trees and let me know as soon as you see them budding. Then these babies will go in the ground!

I've got to get busy and get the new bed ready for planting time.
