Man, those small packets sure do come with lots of seeds inside. Since we still had lots left over after squishing a bunch into the trays, we went ahead and planted some outside, too. It will be interesting which location will yield better results, if any. I guess a lot depends upon whether it stays warm like this or if we get one last burst of cold air. Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow after all, so you just never know when winter is truly over.
Sam’s really gotten into it, even transforming some random ice trays into “mobile seed carriers” filled with dirt and seeds and another tray on top to create the whole greenhouse effect. Dontcha just bet that his ice cube trays with zero drainage end up sprouting the most little green things. On the flip side the fact that he spilled half the dirt on the kitchen floor yesterday while transporting it all didn’t help the cause any. I made sure to vacuum that up right away — sure don’t want to have to live down lettuce sprouting out of the grout on our kitchen floor. There are minimal standards around here to maintain. Gotta watch it or I might end up on some ridiculous reality show starring clueless gardeners giving “Hoarders” a run for their money.
Now it’s time to water, wait, watch and wonder!
