one of my buddies was tilling up a small section of his yard this past weekend to put in some seeds. he had already put down some round-up to kill the grass, and was in the process of cutting in some fertilizer with the soil. he said his parents garden had done very well the last few years, so he is gonna give it a shot. unfortunately for him, about 1/3 of the section he will use is gonna be shaded by the house in the afternoons, so he has been trying to find veges that will do well in shade. thus far, he will be planting:
tomatoes
squash
onions
okra
radishes
jalapenos
cilantro
and various herbs like dill/basil/thyme/etc.
i am curious to see how his garden turns out cause i might like to try it myself. i love me some fresh tomatoes!
