one week ago

I started some seedlings. Exactly 1 week ago. Most of their Germination period said 7-14 days so I wasn't expecting too much..
BUT
I have pretty much total Success! Almost every single pod has some form of growth happening in it ( aside from the rosemary which I know is a hard starter )




Here are some happy onions!





I don't know if you can see that the pansies are kinda coming..




Manitoba Tomatoes 




Tumbler Tomatoes




Subarctic Tomatoes




Cucumbers! ( They came out after like 4 days )




Basil and Sage 


And then today I planted the sweetpeas outside and! Some Iris's. 
I also started some Forget me not seeds that I got from the pet expo yesterday. I will plant them in memory of all my previous pets. <3 p="">

Wow. I'm back!

Last Year I did have a garden. It was all bought. A few rescues... and a few deaths. A lot of flowers.
But it wasn't something I was proud of.
I am proud to make little babies. Start them from seeds. Help them grow into wonderful, seedlings.
Help them go outside. Transplant them into a new space, outside. And watch them grow into successful plants, with big wonderful harvests.

So this is my plan this year. To grow SOME plants from seeds. So far I have :

Annual Bunching Onion
Earliest Mincu Cucumber
Sweet Basil
Sage
Rosemary
Sub Arctic Plenty Tomato ( Made for alberta summers! )

I plan on starting these at the end of April They will have 4+ weeks start by the time they can go outside!

I will also do Some lettuce, radishes, spinach and flowers in the ground in REAL spring.

YEY for seeds!
