Good morning seed lovers !
Do you have your seed catalogues yet ?
Now is the time to look over your current seeds
and plan for the future crops and order what you want !
Spring is just around the corner !!

Plan for at least one future crop of something that you and your family consume
as an experiment
Don't be complacent with what you know and have had success with
Grow a little bit .. and ask questions .

“Don’t be complacent with what you know and have had success with. Grow a little bit...and ask questions.”

AMEN! BUMP!

I am trying two ‘new to me’ tomato varieties and am going to grow my own Broccoli from seed this season, as well as buying ‘Lieutenant’ Broccoli plants from Bonnie Plants, which has been a great performer for me, so I’m hedging my Broccoli Bets this season. With this dry and warm (for Winter!) weather, who knows what Spring will bring? I’m thinking probably a wet Spring season for us...which salad crops will love. :)

I’m kicking myself for not keeping things going in the greenhouse this winter. With such a mild winter, I’ll bet that I could’ve kept cold crops going well into January this season. Live and learn! Glad I don’t have to feed myself 100% from the garden!
