: Spring Break!
Two handfuls organic homegrown spinach. Maybe I haven't recouped my losses from the expense of a grow light, but the spinach was lovely. The light is working out really well. It doesn't light up my room more than a string of christmas lights would, no heat, and it's purple. The test plants (2 beets, 3 spinach, 3 carrots) are astonishingly healthy with deep green leaves and sturdy little stems. (They used to wobble but have gotten past that...)
Today I planted about half of the tomato seeds and discovered that I left my heirloom jalepeno seeds at home (gasp!) and will have to wait for someone to mail them to me. I need to get another plastic tub before I can plant the rest of the tomatoes.
Today:
Rutgers
Amish Paste
Big Month
Red Currant (I plan on making sundried tomatoes with these. I picture cute little raisin like sundried tomatoes. Any one grow these?)
I am in love with dirt.
