I tried Rosa Bianca last year and the seedlings all failed. Trying it again this year.

I have snow, and some dead grass.

I went down to my "nursery" room last night and 2 pots of Romanesco Broccoli are sprouted!!! The tomatoes should be up in another 3-5 days :)

I've grown herbs in un-drained pots before, with marbles in the bottom, and they did great. Esp the cilantro and chives.

My kids have a Wii and they got their 10 yrs older brother's leftover GameCube with like 3 games. We have 2 games for the Wii and they only get to play in the winter if the weater is so bad they can't go outside, or as a reward. It's boxed up in the summer. I have 7 and 8 yr old boys. They...

I have some old barnwood from my Gpa in Wyoming, its been dry aging in his yard for years, not rotten at all. I'm going to do those mason jar wall planter things with a few planks and try to have a large indoor herb garden year round.

I've got a friend in Chehalis WA who's hubby built her a greenhouse using AMAZING blue glass windows (does that make it a bluehouse?) they were gifted in large quantity. She's been using it for sure to get things grown.

Ohhhh I like that idea, I'll put it on the fridge tonight! It'll have beeter exposure to the southern windows that way anyways. And I might lay a piece of saran wrap over the rim of the pot for a little while to "greenhouse" it.

I'm a 3b-4a now. Of course I live in a town on the cusp of 2 zones, heaven forbid I get to do cut-and-dried plant selection.

It was -21F this morning on our way to work. I think Spring is a ways off yet.

Interesting. I grow my tomatoes from seed, but I can't get peppers to get more than 2 inches tall before they die. I've always had to get started plants for peppers.

Do you start your tomatoes from seed indoors to get enough grow time?
