Tomatoes, peppers and a couple others have survived their first transplanting. Our little seed starter (from Lowes, about $40) plus grow lights and heating pads are KICKIN !

We have so much stuff started that we're beginning to think we might need a second seed starter unit. Everything is toasty, warm and humid inside this little gizmo.

My Better Boy tomatoes are 2 inches high with a 1000 watt metal halide in the basement. It’s a cold 36 here in philly so i just go down there and get a tan for a while. Peppers are coming up and i put the cabbage, lettuce and onions in the shed.

Atta Guy! The same thing happened to us. We got the first grow light, and then we just had to have another, so we have it set up in the kitchen.

Our oldest daughter gave us another one when she moved, but it’s 4 feet long, and hubby will have to put a shelf under the window in the utility room for it.

Meanwhile my kitchen light in the basement won’t work. Wanna guess what I am going to replace it with? LOL
