Three sisters: Stage 1 complete

We have corn sprouts!  :)
A little eaten, but with us nonetheless!

In attempt to follow the Farmer's almanac and the IFAS calendar, I will be planting pole beans next weekend, as well as my pumpkins.  I will be traveling up to Doty's in Winter Haven to check out the starts they have available.  Particularly, I would be interested in looking at tomatoes and peppers. I will also be fertilizing select plants.   In addition, I'll be pulling all of my southern peas and laying them to rest as a green mulch on top of my garden.   Look at all the foliage (despite its haggard appearance)!

Though the worms certainly did appear in a "wave" fashion, I still have to pull worms off my plants occasionally.  
 Here is an overview of the garden currently:
