I have come to the realization that I would not have been a very good farmer. The reason being is that I have not check our garden in so long that I did not realize that our corn has grown ears. Little ears but ears all the same. Case in point.....
Nor did I realize corn had to be planted in two rows for cross-pollination, which I fix
after I planted the four flats of corn I planted from seeds....
But then again, the corn was knee high by the 4th of July depending on whose knees you use....
And who would have thought you had to tend to your garden when the wettest June in six years, followed by the coldest week in July in 12 years? Apparently you do. Luckily, the other items in the garden - even if there are only tomatoes, lettuce, and herbs in there - appear to be growing despite my lack of attention and focus. Thank God the country doesn't depend on me to feed them. If they did, we all be screwed.
