In!
Just placed an order from Baker Creek. I need more seeds like I need a hole in my head but here we are. My sister also bought me 4 or 5 new varieties from Baker Creek for Christmas along with a seed organizer.
I had pretty good luck with a couple of different types of melons planted mid summer last year. Other than the dogs swiping them they were pretty prolific and easy to grow.
Going to plant fewer tomatoes this year and more squash. Last spring I planted 16 tomato plants. Only about 10 made it through the late freeze and it was still overwhelming.
As far as peppers go I think I'll plant Jimmy Nardello, Corbaci, and Big Jims. Once I figure up varieties and draw out everything I'll post that. I have about 25 or 30 tomato varieties to choose from. I think I'm going to start a lot more than I need and give the extras away.
I might make another 4x8 bed. I'm running out of room in the backyard, though.

I placed an order from Harrisseeds about a week and a half ago and it still hasn’t shipped. I’m about to contact them to see if I can get an update. The only thing that I need asap is the pepper seeds. I have a couple that I’ll probably start this weekend (jalapeño and shishito). Hopefully I get the rest soon.
ETA: Here’s my garden plan for this spring. Always subject to change, of course.
