TY for the ping. I was working on my garden today, put in the peas and beans that sprouted indoors. Too cold yet for my tomatoes.
Pretty proud of myself....I'm not known for my green thumb!
Our beets just sprouted too :) Anyone have advice for giving potatoes a shot? Or am I getting too ambitious? lol

We start our seeds in those peat moss pots. Lowes has a good deal on a tray of 50. We got 4 of them and planted a bunch of seeds. My wife noticed that the dang birds were pecking in them so I’m not sure how it’s gonna turn out this year. I got a bunch of bird feeders throughout our property but haven’t had the extra money to keep them stocked. So they have been eating the dog food and now my veggie seeds.

I never had any luck with potatoes. A while back I bought a bunch of those potato buds, the kind where you just add water, at a grocery wholesaler. Gotta have taters even if all heck is breaking loose.
