Corn Grows Week 5

This may be of interest to no one since Breanna is on vacation. I saw a farmer's corn field and his was very thickly spaced. Next year I'll know better. Isn't that why we're supposed to grow a garden anyway?...to figure out our mistakes before we really need it when the hard times come? Let's just hope the hard times don't come THIS year!

P.S. I never realized this before, but corn seedlings look just like grass seedlings. As I try to weed the corn, it's difficult to tell the difference between the two. Doesn't that feel like a parable coming on?

P.S.S. Those @&#! slugs and snails ate my cucumber plants! Thank heavens for Correy's Slug & Snail Bait! Anna gathered up a few snails and said she was going to "save" and take care of them. (When I find them, I throw them over the fence into the street.)
