Sing Hurray! It's planting day!!

One of my favorite days of the year!!! Today I planted peppers - 6 or so varieties, 8 varieties of tomatoes, over 1000 wave petunias, a bunch of herbs, celery, celeriac, pansies....I am really excited for spring. Six more weeks and my greenhouse will have heat! I would post a pic, but black dirt is pretty boring.

It's snowing here.

I am quite jealous.

Great news
It is a Blizzard here right now Maybe next year a Greenhouse
Glad you have a quick start

I am sorry Bowker Acres but it does not
say where your located and I thought
this forum was Western Canada and was
not aware of anyone from Florida on here.

EXACTLY!!

Many apologies...location has been updated...and not to Florida (unfortunately!) I have a dream....year round vegie gardening. I am quite successful at starting my season early because I can heat a small portion of the greenhouse for a reasonable cost. I have not been as successful extending the season into the fall as my entire greenhouse will be full with giant plants. Every year is a learning year, which is what makes it so exciting. I have had success, I have had failure, but loving every minute of it.

Flowers.... I hate you........

I will be chipping the frozen overflow from all the gates today.
Satalite tv down. Dont now why. Suspect the horrible arctic winds blasting though here.

Oh man, now I am REALLY jealous. Unity, SK and you're planting already!!!

At least I am not doing anything totally crazy like hatching eggs!! I won't start up the bator for a while yet.

Ha! Good point about the hatching!

I am impressed! I want a greenhouse very very badly. Flowers... sigh...

Congrats Carmen, I am sure it helps with the winter blues! I too wish i had a green house, maybe one day

I too started some plants yesterday! Tomatoes, peppers, herbs, petunias, pansies, geraniums, dichondia, gerbera daisy and asters. More planting weekly!!!! I could post a pic of my awesowe timber framed greenhouse if someone would like to post it for me.

No need for hate...I believe waves are your favorite, right??. I have them in several different colours and varieties. I believe I could be persuaded to trade a tray or 2 of them for a dozen Chantie eggs.

I have had quite a few greenhouses and they always end
up turning in to animal shelters or isolation areas.
Last on is now the duck house. They do make good brooder
in May as it is so warm.

But my next one is going to be big and in the yard so
maybe it will last as a greenhouse.
