Lol, Janezee, thanks for attacking my questions too. Mmm, peas for 6 months. That's a good idea to plant early, mid and late-maturing peas -- I hadn't thought of that. Happy planting!

Dell, yeah, I guess it's time to put up that fence. I've been bugging my husband to help me put one up since last summer, when a groundhog showed up one night and ate every single one of my tomatoes, which were just beginning to blush. Hopefully this weekend.

Jeannine, that should be fun to see the results of all those different kinds. I look forward to reading about them.

Kath, you said:

As it is, with the peas, I have to cover the hills with long tunnels of chicken wire until the plants are a few inches tall or the crows will find them and dig them all out when they start to germinate! I don't erect the fencing until then or the wire tunnels wouldn't work.

I don't understand why you can't put up the fencing until then or the tunnels wouldn't work -- can you explain more?
