I know Christmas is on a lot of people’s minds, but I have that and more on mine. I started a fall garden really late, and now I have some plants really taking off. I’m grateful for a very mild winter so far. I have some cloth to cover, so I’m going to plant some more micro greens this weekend. They grow fast, and I didn’t plant nearly enough initially. I’ll have to take some pictures, but I have onions, garlic, beets, snow peas & peas and fennel coming along at the moment. I don’t know if they will survive, but I had the seeds so why not?
I’m also going to purchase some seeds to start prepping for spring plantings. The average last frost date for my area is March 15, and there are some cooler weather things that need to be started in Dec/Jan. I’ve never started seeds indoors beyond some tomatoes, so I’m anxious to see what I can produce this year.
I’m interested in recommendations for online seed folks, so definitely chime in here if you have a favorite. In the past I have stuck with Park Seeds, but they never seem to grow like the Ferry Morris I buy from Lowe’s. I’m fine with that brand really, but they don’t sell a big variety or vegetables or types.
