2009 Garden

I have started my seeds for our garden!! I went to Home Depot to buy potting soil. While I was there I talked to someone about starting my seeds indoors. Last year I would carry all my pots outside during the day, let my little seeds and sprouts soak up the sun and then bring them back in. I really don't have any real good sun coming in my house, so this was my best option. I asked about grow lights. I settled on a $7 clamp flood lamp and a $7 120 watt plant bulb. The kids and I had fun filling our little pots with soil and poking holes for our little seeds. Until my seeds start to grow, it's going to look like I'm growing pot in the kitchen. Oh well, I know I'm legal. These are the seeds the kids and I have started:

White Pumpkin


Zucchini


Yellow Crookneck Squash


Butternut Squash


Acorn Squash


Casaba Melon


Cantaloupe


Watermelon


Cayenne Peppers


Bell Peppers


Grape Tomatoes


Beefsteak Tomato


Walla Walla Sweet Onions


Cucumbers


Broccoli


Sugar Snap Peas


Corn


When the weather finally warms up the stuff I'm going to plant directly into the garden will be:

Radishs


Garlic


Carrots
