Okay, I know I speak for everyone when I say we want to be just like you when we grow up Brian;)

My two favorite tomatoes are the zebras and the Brandywine's. Brandywine's are great for dehydrating, their flavor is totally enhanced from the dehydrating:)

Green zebras are just the best on hamburgers!!

I know it looks like I have an enormous garden when it's all written down, the things that use up the most space in my garden are the bush beans, tomatoes, and corn, the pepper's I grow on black plastic about 3' wide with pretty close spacing, I fit about 60-75 plant's on 20 of plastic, the 2 types of pole beans and cukes grow up fencing about 8' high surrounding my garden(it was originally to keep deer out but makes a great trellis too) which saves a lot of space, things like zucchini and yellow squash are grown in recycled plastic bucket's because they tend to get huge and use up too much square footage in the garden, then things like the pumpkin's and winter squash's have their own separate "smaller" garden because they tend to grow all over the place, so square footage wise, I have about 1700sf, but anything that vines or crawl's, I make them grow up instead.

I still want to be like Brian when I grow up!

I don't wanna grow up I just wanna grow AWESOME like Brian lol
