OMG! I thought I was the only one who did that! I planted mine yesterday and I must have looked at them a dozen times already. :P

My garden is covered under a foot of snow... *sigh*

Thanks!!! I've added this to my favorites! :coolsun

Today was the first day my business was closed for the winter! WoooHooo!!! :celebrate I have a dog boarding kennel and I spent the morning with MY dogs. Then I had a dog food delivery (close to 1/2 ton!). It rained like crazy here all day and the dogyard flooded but my dogs had a great time...

Welcome, chickenbuddy! It's good to see you here! :frow

Thanks everyone!!! :) I just ordered my seed mat! Can't wait to start those seedlings! :watering

I think part of my problem is that I don't know what these things are! :P I thought a seed tray was those pot-type things that you plant the seeds directly into. I have alot to learn! :rolleyes:

Thanks!!! The mat I'm looking at will fit a 10 X 20 tray. I'll see what HD has. How many rolls can you fit into each pot opening? Or do you only put one in each?

I had some trouble with my indoor seeds last year. My house is cool and I think it was just not warm enough. I saw a Seed Mat on eBay and it said that it was big enough for a standard size seed tray. I don't want to use a seed tray (I prefer the TP roll method), so my question is, what can I use...

Best wishes for a bountiful harvest and lots of flowers in 2009! :throw :rainbow-sun :throw :rainbow-sun :throw

What a great idea! I never thought of that. Thanks for the tip!!! :)

That's what I did last year. I cut each roll in half and it worked great. I was able to transplant the seedling without disturbing the root system (just dropped TP roll and all into the hole). The rolls will simply biodegrate.

Hi RB! I'm in Jersey too. I don't know if I'll be any help because I just started gardening this year. I had some good luck with zucchini (who doesn't???) and garden peas. I also had a nice pepper crop. When I first asked the same question as you, I was told that pretty much anything can grow...

Okay... Now I really feel stupid. I never knew that green peppers are supposed to turn red! :rolleyes:

:yuckyuck Thanks for the heads-up! I'll have to keep some of those in mind! :D

I planted some peppers this year that (as far as I know) should be a green variety. They are California Wonders from Bakers Creek (heirlooms). I pulled all my plants up last week and found one pepper had turned red! When I cut it open there were no seeds inside (it tasted fine). I'm wondering if...

I'm looking at dirt. I've pulled everything except some late pea plants that still have flowers on them and carrots that I'm not sure when to harvest. :/ I've started my second compost pile. The first one will be used in the spring and the second will be for the following year. And I'm planning...

What would I do differently? Mmmm... Where do I start? :lol: First of all, I need to start EVERYTHING much sooner! By the time I was able to get what I started indoors outside everyone else was harvesting. I have also learned that "fall crops" are not to be planted in the fall! :D Next, my...

This sounds wonderful! What is "acidulating"? I'm assuming it means to reduce the acid content somehow. How do you do it? Thanks for a "must try" recipe!

I continue to take care of chickens, sheep and goats and I race sled dog teams! :) :) (dogs) :) :) (dogs) :) :) (dogs) :D (me!)
