With some things that's definitely true, especially cucumber family,
and I will plant some melons of some kind. I'm mostly interested in
lots of tomatoes, but we also have an 8'x8' raised bed in the back

I just went up there, and those bozos are putting the raised beds
together with a nail gun instead of drill and screw or bolt.
