Here we grow

Started my first seeds of the season today inspired by the new grow stand that we scored from someone that is either too big hearted or really doesn't know what these things are worth.......regardless, there's seeds awaitin' and they/me are ever so grateful to the kind hearted soul that let there be light for this.

First batch for the year..............and this is only because I'm still waiting for my new seed order to arrive......lots of old radish seeds for microgreens ( something that I'm still trying to convince Bob the Builder is a good thing, he just sees it as a waste of seeds ) a bed of mixed lettuce, and the seeds that I dried out last year from some pear tomato plants that I found in what was left of a community garden put to bed for the winter, so they are a little doubtful as to whether or not they will work.............so let's start early and see what happens.

Oh, and did I mention that this is the first time for me starting seeds indoors, or seed saving for that matter......so wish me luck.

Pear Tomato seeds....Feb 7 2012


As usuall, I've been surfing to get some tips on all of this, and came across Ray ,  got sucked into the youtube vortex, totally maxed out the internet time for the month....... and in the end, learnt alot about growing indoors. So I will be using my Moms technique of starting them in a clamshell container and adapting that to accomodate deep planting.
