My new seed nursery

Ah, my sweetheart built me a spot in the garage to start my seeds with a sun lamp and foil sides and top!  It holds three flats. 

Two weeks ago I planted tomatoes, Brandywine, Sweet One Hundreds, and San Marzanos as well as poblano peppers, little sweet cherry red peppers, Japanese Soyu cucumbers, and thunbergias or black eyed susan vine.  They have been living  on my bookshelf under grow light.  So, today, they moved into their nursery.  I then added to my nursery garden by planting tomatillos, basil, both garden grown and saved and Sicilian, chives, burnet, Victorian pansies, Shasta daisies and early Jersey Wakefield cabbages (from Monticello).  Happy day!
