    Oh my goodness!! This catalog makes you want to buy everything!! Amazing colors..Bravo to the cover!!! Hubby still doesn't understand what that does to me or any gardener...lmbo..but he's trying. So glad that I can go outside because cabin fever would be really bad with this catalog.

    Those catalogs always come at the best time ... when we are starving for colour!
    Try not to spend too much hummerbum!

    lol cheliscott...I have already ordered tomatoes and they are seedlings now. I'm trying to keep from buying more. There's only so much that my hubby can stand on our patio before he says something...the spare room is filling up..going to share pics in a few...LMBO. But I tell you what, when we do move, it's on!!! The rarity of their seeds is amazing!

    I'm in the same boat, as far as room. Lol. I want to get it all, but I think this year I want to focus on strawberries and lettuce and see how it goes. Things I know I will eat ^_^ Oh and cucumbers, I can't forget those! I've already got them in my starters.

    I may sow pickling cucs this wknd. They are the bush variety. I didn't get any cucs last year, but hopefully I will this year. They grow quickly!

    I got a few year before last, I tried to hand pollinate them. I'm not sure if it helped, but I got a few!

    Cheliscott, I called myself doing that and was hand pollinating them completely wrong!!! I was pollinating the wrong flower. I'll give it a go again. This year i have an electric toothbrush that many on here suggested i try. Well I did and that is how i ended up with those peppers. All hand pollinated.
