Lots of Seeds

 I finally had time to plant the seeds this evening! I have had dirt in the pots all week but just didn't have time to fill them with seeds.  
This was the planning stage. I wanted to make sure I had enough pots. It worked out pretty well. 

One of the best things I did last year was write down which plants were which. When they are seedlings they all look the same. They are stubby and green. 

There they are on the greenhouse ready to go! I gave them a little water and I made sure both lights work. And now we wait.

The first seedlings

The basil has begun to sprout. Still waiting in the peppers to make an appearance. 
Hopefully I can get a few more seeds in the dirt soon!

Adventures in Gardening

This past year I took on the challenge of gardening. I do consider it a challenge. While it might seem simple and dull to some, it truly was a daily adventure. As I undergo round 2 of the gardening era I would like to jot down and pass along some of the stories I encounter.

So the adventure begins and the first seeds have been planted!
I am starting them in my apartment. 
JalapeƱos, Sweet Basil & Sweet Peppers


 The greenhouse is moving right along. We were able to get it covered in plastic today.
I am still missing a heater and benches/shelves, but hopefully both will be added soon.
Almost ready for some plants.
