Time to get planning! After reading a few excellent gardening books by Gayla Trail and learning about some excellent gardening hints and tips, I'm all ready to think gardening! First, let's do some organizing....
With the slightly disappointing planting season last year (not entirely my fault - the weather really did not cooperate), this time around I'm going to start specific seeds as early as possible - in this case it's peppers, eggplants, and tomatoes. I've started my seed starting and planting chart (above) to get myself organized, but also to review my seed inventory and figure out what seeds I need to replenish.
Speaking of seeds, do other gardeners have the same problems of buying / collecting too many seeds? It takes me a few seasons to fully finish using a packet of seeds, but every year I still have the urge to buy more (seed hoarder?). I buy almost all my seeds from Urban Harvest - they carry heirloom and organic seeds with varieties that are tried and tested for planting in our climate zones (on top of that it's a good way to support local businesses).
Summary for today:
- seed planting schedule: check
- buy new seeds - done.
- collect and clean planting vessels (this weekend)....
Almost there! :)
