The second planting of corn went in to the ground this morning, exactly 2 weeks after the first planting went in. BeetBear helped dig the holes and set the pots into place so I could do the actual planting and watering. Variety of corn is "Flagler"

A ten inch tall, light brown teddy bear in green overalls sits looking directly at the camera. He is holding a beet in his right paw. There is a bunch of beets embroidered on the bib of his overalls. He is standing next to a 40 foot long garden row of corn plants in 4 inch pots that are placed into holes dug along a string line across the garden.
A black garden cart filled with 4 inch pots each with 5 corn plants. There are 32 pots in the cart. A 12 inch long garden trowel with a red handle sits to the front of the cart.
A ten inch tall, light brown teddy bear in green overalls sits looking off to the left. He is holding a beet in his right paw. There is a bunch of beets embroidered on the bib of his overalls. He is standing next to a 40 foot long row of corn plants that have just been set into the garden soil. Plants are about 6 inches tall and grouped in clusters of 5 plants to a hole. To the left is a row of much taller corn that was planted about 2 weeks earlier. Garden shed, mown grass and a black garden cart can be seen in the background.

When we got all of the second planting of corn in the ground, BeetBear picked up all the pots and hitched a ride back to the potting area in the cart. We are now ready to plant the seeds for the third set of corn, which we will do later today. 😀

@richrollgardener @gardening aha, the picture gives me an idea that perhaps #BeetBear, or someone similar, could deter the rabbits from eating the young tender growths.

@gecole @gardening I used to have an "outdoor" cat named Dixie that did that job, but sadly she came to the end of her days about a year ago.

@richrollgardener @gardening Yes, I miss my cat, and he would have done the job.
