Okay, someone restrain me. I went to Walmart for flour, saw they had put out their seeds, anc bought 4 packets.

I figured as long as I was buying seeds I didn’t need, I should see if Home Depot had put theirs out..Unfortunately, for my budget, they had. I bought a red, white, and blue seed potato baggie, and a bunch of seeds, and seed tape. I resisted the “no batteries required” soil ph tester, but kinda wish I hadn’t..

That is a non sequitur statement and action on your part. :o) You didn't need it (negative action) so you looked for more of it (positive action).

I have several seed catalogs on a table by my chair and I've said before I'm afraid to go through them as I might fall off the wagon and buy more.

If your area stores have seeds out, ours probably does. I need to wait for plants to come in to get herbs. Surely, spring plants are not out, right?

I picked up one of those at a garage sale once for 25 cents. Can't say I use it much, what I really need is the food PH testing equivalent. I'd like to know which of my tomatoes are acidic enough to can as-is, and which ones really do need the extra lemon juice. It would also be nice to be able to make my own pickling vinegars. There are ways to test the PH, but the gadget would be better.

I’m not one to use restraint myself.

I am thinking of putting up a small greenhouse to grow peppers in since Sarajevo made his comment in post #105. Just looking for a reason to build one like yours, I guess.

I love Tim's! I bought some frozen durian there one time just to freak out the neighbors! I usually get my kimchee base there too.
