Let's kick this form into action. What are you planning to grow in your 2025 garden?

13. allll the things.

Lots of tomatoes, including two of my newer favs - dwarf wild Fred and big green dwarf. I think I like big green the best. That one absolutely sprawled all over the place for me last year. I gave up trying to stake/cage it and just let it do its thing. I use tall birdies beds, so it had plenty of space to fall over and produce a ton of green tomatoes. I think I was into green varieties last year? Big green is the only one I'll repeat this year, as it was super easy to see when it was ripe. Always shocking to get massive tomatoes on dwarf plants. Thank you so much for your work on those!

Bush beans will be tucked in everywhere, mostly fresh eating and black beans. I think I'm trying some version of a bush kidney bean this year too.

Rampicante, even though it goes absolutely bonkers. I'm putting it on a fence instead of an arch. The back wall of my garden has a fence that starts just above the tall birdie bed height, so there is a lot of potential growing space there. I'm keeping one of the squash from last year in the basement until May to see how it really does store. So far so good.

Lots of garlic, shallots and walking onions. I lost all of my garlic last year with the garden remodel, so I'm trying to keep a few things going.

I've tucked in some wine caps in one of my beds.

Pickling cukes and lemon cukes. Might plant the Sikkim cukes again, because they were actually very tasty.

I'm trying to find a good replacement for my favorite hot pepper, fireball. I usually get it from Territorial but they're not carrying it, and it's an F1. I've picked up some cherry bomb with hopes that it is similar. I'll also be doing a lot of Serrano, jalapeño, arbol, ancho, guajillo peppers.

I may try to grow some sweet potatoes this year. I had some growing last year and they did actually grow some roots. Usually I just grow them for the foliage (eat like spinach), but I have some new south facing corten planters that get a lot of heat gain on the 3' depth, so I figured they'd be good for sweet potatoes.
