Well it time to bring this topic back to the front.
I decided to go full on square foot gardening this year, but am still doing the lazagna style of growing material.

I planted my onions, beets, carrots, radishes, celery and kale about 4 weeks ago. This year I am trying to grow through black plastic. Not sure what's happening with the carrots and radishes yet.

Put my peas in 2 weeks ago and they started coming up this week and I also planted my corn around then too and they are coming up. I will need to get my hot house finished for them.

This is a corn poking his head up. There are 4 corns per square, so if they all germinate I will have 128 plants and a potential of 128 ears.

Since I am an avid PVC junky resulting from my fishing "toon" modifications this has been my fall back for my different hot house styles and trellis for peas and such.

Corn hot house.
[inline "PICT0193 (Small).JPG"]
Tomato hot house, the sides are adjustable to whatever height I might need.
[inline "PICT0194 (Small).JPG"]
Then I have 6 asparagus plants that are on the 5th year and we have had 2 meals from them.

So I will keep this updated for those who might be interested.
