Gosh Dooley that must be around 500 plants!!!! I only managed to prick out 12 tomato plants as it was raining so heavily. At least I didn't have to water them in!!
Well done. I hope every single one of them grows strong and healthily for you.

Dooley, you forgot to stick with the decaf this morning didn't you?
Goodness woman, what do you have planned for the product of all this work? Do you dry the herbs for cooking or potpourri?
Certainly hope you get the majority of those to sprout, that will be wonderful garden this summer.

I always grow a lot of zucchini. I supply the whole neighborhood. I haven't tried so many herbs before so I don't exactly know what I will do if they all grow. My son sent me a gift certificate for seeds and I ordered 22 paks. I didn't know so many seeds came in the packets. I ordered the smallest sizes. I still want to grow tomatoes, eggplant and green peppers. I have spinach about big enough to start picking. I thought about putting it into the ground but then I remembered the earwigs. With my usual luck, not all of it will grow and I'll just have enough for me. I like herbs but haven't a lot of experience with them so we shall see what happens. Dooley

Wow! I thought I was being lazy by not getting it done until now. I needed the greenhouse before I could get them started. The laundry room is not big enough to accommadate them all and still have room for laundry. As soon as we get the trim up we will take pictures. I, also, have to clean up my mess. Dooley
