Some photos for you boys. I'm late to the party and the damn low night temps are killing me. This is two years in a row I've planted by Good Friday and the unusual low temps (FO Al Gore) stump my pea/bean germination and slow my seedling growth.
Kudos to whoever recommended the wood chip mulch. It works fantastic!
This weekend I'll get my tomatoes in cages and lay out my irrigation.
What would you guys recommend? Drip tape or drip emitters. I have both and can't decide.
I'll also get some cattle panels (the nylon netting isn't strong enough) and get my pole beans and spec butter beans in the ground. Should be getting close to planting okra too. It doesn't germinate well with these cool night temps so I wait on that.

I like the drip tape. Can get various hole spacing and it’s easy to repair.
35 mph winds yesterday and today. Even with the weave, the tomatoes are not enjoying this.

Based on the length of your rows I'd go with the drip tape. They're better for long runs.
Great looking garden!
