-====Things I should look up:====
+====== Gardening Notes ======
-What plants go well with tomatoes in my HUGELKULTUR?  Do sunflowers go well?
+Zone 8A as of 2023 (global warming?!)
-====Things to do:====
+=====Plants=====
-Build another Hugelkultur near my pumpkins to make another wall...
+  * Despite my innate touch of death, I am learning how to garden.
+  * I like to raise herbs and veggies for our own kitchen consumption!
-Also another one near the pumpkins
+    * My best crop so far is a bunch of green onions that came with the house and grow back every year 😼 feels good man to just go outside and cut some for dinner.
+    * We've been trying to get pumpkins going from leftover pumpkin guts from Halloweens past.  They like our mulch.
+    * Tomatoes, peppers, and potatoes make up the meat of the produce.
+  * I also like to keep the natural flora going for the wildlife outside.
+    * Feels good man to see snakes and lizards and hummingbirds and mantises zipping around.
+  * I have become enraptured by Hugelkultur.
+===== Potatoes =====
+  * Don't dig too deep or they'll rot.  4 inches deep maybe, 12 inches apart.
+  * [[https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/potato/trench-and-hill-potato-planting.htm|Trench method]] - dig a line, cover 'em up.  Don't need to hill additional dirt on top.
+  * Ruth Stout method - Just put em on the floor, no digging, then cover them with straw/dry mulch.  Very clean cuz you don't have to dig up dirt.
+  * Grows very well under frost cover, grows faster
