Sowing My Seeds
Ok. I did it. I started my garden. As I have mentioned before, I wanted to try to grow some tomatoes and cucumbers this year. Well, this was the week to start. I bought my seeds at Walmart -
And...I bought a little starter kit. I know - its sort of cheating but Im brand new at this and I wanted to give these guys a fighting chance. ;-) I started with the tomatoes.
The greenhouse was $12. A little pricey but since I didnt have anything on hand to start the seeds off, I figured it was worth it. The kit has individual pellets.
I poured water over them and waited for them to expand.
After waiting about an hour, it was time to sow my seeds. The kit recommended 2-3 seeds per pellet.
Then it was time to cover.
The next day, there was a little condensation on the lid -
So, I hope that means that they are doing their thing. Craig and I are pretty excited about this project - we eat a lot of tomatoes in this house. And it will be so nice to pick one from the backyard when we want one!
