1. I just love the beginning of gardening season!
Your seedlings look very healthy. I'm growing some flowers from seed. They're Everlastings and I plan to grow them in a vegetable-type garden, because they're for harvesting, not looks. They're indoors now, under a Gro-Light. (I don't have a picture just yet).

2. Yay!
Lookin good! I still have nothing planted hehe. I'm skeert. Well, nothing planted in the garden. I've managed to get about 100 plants to start and lost all but 15 or so leaving them out in a storm. I guess the ones that survived are gonna be tough enough to hang :)

:thumbsup:

Good Morning!

:hug::loveya::hi:

6. No real pics as of yet
I did string it off and till it. I've been going out and playing in the dirt pretty regular pulling sneaky stuff that grows.

You woulda laughed at how I did the strings and stakes. I only know how to pour foundations and footers, so I probably had 20 stakes just to assure it was square and proper.

:blush:

3. Good looking seedlings
Mine are in the ground and first tomatoes about 3 weeks from harvest. My neighbor calls me a sluggard because her brother (about 20 miles away) is already harvesting. I started a bunch of plants indoors but had so many volunteers, I'm just sorta letting them hang in pots for a bit. My camera bit the bullet a bit ago or I'd upload some pics. Thanks for sharing yours!

11. I love fresh veggies.
I'm also putting in zucchini, cucumbers, peppers, brussel sprouts, and attempting my first watermelons (for the kids).

I haven't planted a veggie garden in years....

I have NO luck in starting seeds....

I do remember planting radishes, pulling them up from the ground, washing them off and eating them

I am. Well, I'm in all the planning. I've yet to plant anything but 'maters, herbs, and flowers.

The stuff is so cheap I figgered I couldnt lose if I kill 80% of them :P
