Starting Seeds

Tonight I started my indoor seed tray. I planted celery, broccoli, leeks, anaheim chili peppers, roma & brandywine tomatoes. I've had a hard time with starting seeds, but I am determined to take care of them this time. Hopefully, I'll have some transplants to harden and set out in a month or two.

Restart

So, last year was bad. It wasn't too terrible in the garden, but it could have been better. However, it was super terrible in the recording department. I'm determined to do better this year. It really is so helpful to me to look back at how the previous year was.

I'm also determined to do the garden really right this year, and I'm already making a decent start. Yay! Part that reason though is because we've had a really cold winter and quite a few snow days. Today was one of those days, but I still went out as the snow was falling and planted peas, spinach, and lettuce in their containers with fresh new potting soil. It will be interesting to see if they take longer to germinate than they should because they're a bit cold.

I also made my seed order at Pine Tree last night. I can't wait to get my package, and moreso I can't wait for it to be spring!
