That's where I first learned about rotating crops and yes again, it made my
head spin.
Glad to hear many of you don't rotate or don't rotate much.
I like James' idea of having many veggies in one row--unless you're growing
sweet potatoes or another rambling vine crop.
Wondering, do you guys prefer bush varieties as opposed to rambling vine
varieties of summer (and winter) squashes, when there is a choice? Do you
let ramble in the garden or stake up and grow vertical?
