New Sprout!

Well, it's time. We are starting a container garden in the back yard. I started some cilantro from seed and this morning I saw little sprouts! I'm with great hope that my thumb will turn from brown (killing plants) to green.

Organic Potting Soil, Check!

Containers (cedar barrels) Check!

Now off to get some organic seedlings. I think the kids will love watching the plants grow.

I'm really excited. It's past the freezing period and we've hit temps in the 70s already!

Looking forward to getting my hands dirty. My basil in the kitchen needs a bigger pot so it's time to transplant it outside.

Hope to grow, peppers, tomatoes, basil, cilantro, salad mix lettuces!

Happy Growing!! Our CSA could start in June!!

Good luck! I started our seedlings a few weeks ago, but we've had so much rain I haven't been able to plant them (they'd FLOAT away) and now they have grown too big and are dying :o(
Post some pics of your sprouts to give me some new determination!!!
