Today's the New Moon

And it's time to plant seeds.  Today is the best time to plant seeds for tomatoes, peppers, and lots of other stuff.  
 
We will plant seeds today, because it takes about 8-12 weeks for them to get big enough to go out into the garden.  It's a process.  We plant the seeds into flats and put them on heat mats.  Then when they are big enough we will transplant them into 6-packs, and keep them under grow lights.  And then when the ground is warm enough, they will go into the garden.  
 
I guess we could just buy the 6-packs at Home Depot, but this way I get to choose the varieties of seeds that we like.  And I don't mind the process.  Actually, I like it.  
 
 
HAPPY SPRING!!!
