Yep, it's that time again - time for starting seeds.
Yesterday I disinfected seed starting supplies and started 12 types of tomatoes and 12 types of peppers (3 cells of each). Today I will start some other stuff; at least one more pepper type, some perennials and some annuals.
I'm actually a bit late in starting seeds. I am quite proud of myself on my restraint in not starting seed at the beginning of the month. I was going to wait another two weeks, but with the wood shed beginning to get bare, I couldn't hold out any longer.
Last row of wood for this season (this pic was actually taken last weekend - the bank of wood on the right is only about 1/2 as tall a the bank on the left now).
I'm hoping Mother Nature takes note of how low our wood is getting (the stuff on the left needs to season another year) and finally lets winter transition into spring.
Congratulations on your marvelous show of constraint. You are doing well!
Wish you were here to do my gardening for me (like that is going to happen!) or at least to cut up and use the wood from the big old tree that blew down a few weeks ago. I am working on it--slowly, but I hope, surely--to get the tree down to pieces that I can manage to pile into brush piles for the wildlife. I can drag a piece that weighs a lot more than I can carry (I limit carry to 50-60 pounds, these days--I am, after all, 70!) We have, as you may have noted during the year-end holidays, 5 brush piles, already.
