Seed Starting Update



Here are some updated pic's of our seed starting. The first is the onions we planted on 1/17. They are doing well, already had to give them a hair cut to stimulate root growth. The second is three different tomatoes. They are doing good, we will see how big they get by planting time. We started them 2 months early. I see them spending some time in the cold frame this early spring.

Seed starting Experiments



Here are a couple of pics of some seed starting experiments we have going. The first one is our first attempt at growing onion transplants from seed. They are doing pretty well, just started a whole flat on Thursday. The second pic is the marigolds we started from seed about 3 weeks ago. They are growing really well.

2009 Storm Cleanup




Well, we finally had some nice weather here. Its been in the 50's the last two days. I have most of the yard cleaned up, there are about 6 different piles of logs around the yard like the first pic. The rest of the branch's have been halled to the back. Next stop for them is the fire pit.
