So I was searching for my old seed packs and looking over the new ones we bought. A few of them said to start indoors now! And when I did go to plant the Peppers, the packet is empty!? No idea what happened to them. Last year, two pepper plants grew in the garden, not too many peppers, maybe 8 total.
Anyway, I ordered the bags and they should be here in a week or less. Put some Tomato seeds into 12 holes for now to get them going. Seeds take 4-8 days to sprout here, so it should be ok and if any fail, I have more in the pack.
I'm missing some packets from the other years, still looking for them. I also saved seeds from Halloween pumpkins. We will be planting pumpkin and cucumbers all over the place and fence off pasture so my horses and sheep won't eat them. The Cukes grew amazingly easily last year and we made pickles! According to my family, fiance and I, they were THE BEST pickles ever! Lol, so we are hoping to go a little cuke-mad this year! My fish also eat the fresh cukes, they love it far more than the store stuff, too. I used to not eat the skins off pickles, but our home made ones I eat them all and they are so much better. We bought a store jar of pickles the other week, so gross! We also got a "bread n butter" jar, *gag*. I mixed the powder packet I had bought to make those pickles in the hog feed. The store jar of pickles also went to the hogs!
Much of the stuff I'm growing is to help feed our animals.
Anyway, I didn't realize NOW is when I need to be "staring indoors!"
So exciting!
