Ruth writes: If it's corn, it won't need staking, just some hilling. Mound the soil to a height of around 4-6 inches as the plant grows. For a lot more info on growing veggies, check out Fine Gardening's sister site, www.vegetablegardener.com. A few searches over there should answer most of your questions. Posted: 9:09 am on June 7th

Ruth writes: 1. if the leaves are smooth and shiny, pepper; if a a tad furry, tomato. it will be easier to say when the next sets of leaves (the "true" leaves) appear. 2. looks awfully thin for corn, but I don't know what other veggie it could be. 3. definitely a cucurbit: squash, melon, cuke, pumpkin...
