I’ve been drying the egg shells then pulverizing them in my dry herb grinder. We’ll be sprinkling them in the tomato pots and in my kitchen garden and wherever the powder is needed.
Squash and pepper seeds in the ground. I’m putting a couple of seeds in the kitchen garden and let them climb toward the balcony. Putting herbs in next week, after my shopping spree. I’ll be planting the melons in the community garden and a couple in my pot garden. My roses are going gang busters, but no blooms yet. You know there’s nothing more fun than digging around in the mud. I love it. The potatoes we planted on Valentines day are up about 5 inches. Nice. I’m thinking of putting in some onion bulbs too, along the edge of the kitchen garden. I’ve also planted some flowering bulbs for show. Hopefully it works out. Trimming my climbing rose, it’s reaching for the sky. Bless it’s hungry roots.

I don’t know if 100 for $3 at WM is a good deal. 3 cents apiece? Well, it’s done so guess that’s what I’m going with. We’ll see how I do with bulbs. I still feel bad about my radishes last year - sprung up all nice and healthy for weeks - then I put them outside and the Sun finished them off. Oops. Guess I have to get them more shade next time (have my seeds for this year already).

I was gonna go with the all white at first but got the mix of red, yellow and white. I like to use red onion a lot, too.
