Neato! Maybe I'll go down to Cooperstown, that sounds really cool.

April is about right for planting, with all the spring crops, peas, carrots, etc. They can take a light frost. There's some saying about 100 hours to germination, 100 days to harvest for flax, not sure how accurate that is. I think I pulled mine in July last year.

Weeding is going to be a big pain. I think I'm going to do mine in rows rather than broadcast because I hand weeded my little 10x10 broadcast patch (planted too thin) and holy shit was it a pain in the butt. The plants are so thin, they don't shade at all and they're such tiny tiny seedlings. I want to say they were a little slow to germinate but don't quote me on that.
