seeding time

This past Sunday we planted our vege starts. It was an ideal time to plant (according to our sources)--a waxing quarter Moon in Cancer.
We'd picked out these seeds with Meredith and Steve, we went halfsies on them, since our garden spaces are both rather small.
Eden, India and I took turns picking out favorite packets and we planted six cups for each variety. Eden pretty much went for the prettiest. India went for the sweet ones--watermelon and sugar pumpkin, etc. I got the Black Plum Paste tomatoes and all the peppers.

I'm planning on a major container planting this year on our deck. We've got a decent drip irrigation infrastructure in place already. Just need some pots and crates and soil. That said, we're still going to have to give some of these starts away!
