Well it is officially 10 weeks out from my areas last frost date so I had some sowin' to do today! This is what I planted:
12 each of the yellow and red Alpine Strawberries,
3 each of Purple Beauty, Canary Bell, and Orange Wonder Peppers,
6 Mini Red Cherry Peppers,
8 Nero Toscana Kale,
4 Long Purple Eggplant,
and.....
8 Brazilian Verbenas
I also decided to try an experiment with my Yellow Coneflower Echinacea seeds. They need a period of stratification, or cold treatment, before they will germinate so I planted them in a milk jug and set them outside. This way they will get their cold treatment and be better adapted to outside life when it comes time to plant in their permanent spot.
| The Strawberries all tucked in! |
| Pepper seeds like to be warm and cozy when waking up from hibernation. What better place than on the radiator!?!? |
| Milk jug planter. Cut three sides, add seed starter and seeds, close up, tape and you are good to go! |
| Waiting to see what happens... |
