Over the last few years I've been trying to move towards starting more and more of my own plants. And for the most part I've been pretty successful. Especially after switching to the aps units from gardener supply. Those have been a life saver. Of course they only work when you keep water in the bottom. With the unseasonably warm weather we've been having I may have let mine dry out a little too much this year. Oops I'll be trying some extra tomatoes this year just in case.
This year I'm also making the switch to mostly open pollinated varieties that I can keep from year to year. I was especially excited after getting some tomato seeds for the first time. It's amazing how just getting the how to makes all the difference in the world. So between the extra confidence I've gained and finding out that good old Monsanto actually owns most of the varieties you see on the stores I've taken the leap. Crossing my fingers it works out.
Update: So knowing that this has sat for a while it's time to let everyone know that the new and improved can be found over at www.gardeningfoodies.com I've learned a lot over the years and I'm super excited to share that with everyone.

I moved all my seeds outside to enjoy the warmth of the driveway. Too bad mother nature decided it was too early. |

Moved all the tomatoes and pepers inside after mother nature decided to give us another good freeze. Most of the tomatoes got a little too dry so they all got another round of seeds |

The winter garden didn't do so well this year wit the catipillar eating everything so I deicided to pull it all up and put the space to better use. Worked out pretty well. Not sure what I'll do next year though. |

I'm like a little kid at christmas waiting for the seedlings to pop up. Doesn't matter how many times I do it it just never seems to get old. |
