Just wanted to make sure you’re far enough north for the WW onions… they’re long day onions if I remember right, so won’t bulb up if you don’t have something like 14-15+ hours of daylight or so during the height of summer, they won’t do their thing. And again, depending on your growing season, Moon & Stars (if I remember right) isn’t one of the shorter season melons. I’m attempting Blacktail mountain this year, so we shall see if I get any melons this year.

I had more thoughts, but have since forgotten them because of a mud-covered child vying for attention.

Yes, I did order my seeds from Heirloom Acres. I ordered my seeds on Jan 12, and got them 3 weeks later. I haven’t had any trouble contacting them either. The one time I called, the line was busy, but I tried again a little later and got Thom himself. I know the later you order, the longer you might have to wait because stuff is back ordered. Keep trying to get a hold of somebody. Don’t worry, they’re probably really busy with spring orders Good luck! I hope you get them soon.

If I remember correctly, you ordered your seeds through Heirloom Acres, correct? I’m asking because I ordered seeds through them as well. I ordered them a little over 3 weeks ago and have since tried to contact them twice to check the status on my order. I have yet to receive a response back from anyone over there. How long did it take for you to get your seeds? Did you have any issues in trying to contact them? Thanks.

As a beginner, I wasn’t sure how much I could handle right off the bat, so I ordered one packet of 50 seeds of each variety that I would be planting. I have some books that tell me how much I would need to plant of something per person though. Maybe I should do a post on it, hmmm…
