I haven't planted anything yet, but I DEFINITELY will do so. Justin and I started the whole green thumb thing two years ago......so GOOD...
Anyways, I don't know nothing about planting, I still will go for it.
On my list will be:
Lettuce (some mixed greens stuff, I pick the semen according the the looks of the package, so don't ask me for a name)
Tomatos (for good Italian tomato sauce) (is there more than one kind...if so, anything Italian will do)
Potatoes (I am German!!!)
Strawberries (good for drinkers!!!)
Zucchini
Pepper (do they evern grow in CA????)
and whatever justin wants....
PROST

Strawberries
HOPS
HOT peppers (Jalapinos, chile, etc.)
Pumpkins
Cucumbers
Tomatoes
