Sounds like more than it really is Barry. If you've done a good job of initial weed control the vine crops take over their space, especially pumpkins, squash and gourds. If you're a weed like waterhemp, lambsquarter, or even a purslane trying to get enough light, nutrients and moisture under that canopy to survive, good luck with that.

What sort of comparison trials are we talkin' Ken? Quantitative? Qualitative? I might be interested in a small amount as long as it doesn't take a lot of space, time or involves okra or anything else no one will eat. Of course I could always mail it to glenn...

I think what Glenn is saying he wants you to use smaller words so can better understand what is being said!!!

You get 2 small- medium sized packets of seeds of a variety. Plant them and compare the 2. At the end of the season compare the two and report your findings. $1.50 for each trial and $5.50 for shipping. You can have up to 7 trials. You can look back at the trials for at least the last 10 years and see what people are saying about varieties.

Last year I compared 2 sweet corns, 2 carrots, 2 cantaloupe, 2 peas, and 2 purple beans.

Here are this years trial results.
