I guess I will plant this weekend and put them by the west side window. I also am so eager to start eating my own homegrown non-GMO greens, tomatoes, etc. Thank you for another encouraging post!..<br />AliciaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13915588633476402851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-86470648122210560072014-01-14T19:28:33.219-06:002014-01-14T19:28:33.219-06:00I ordered my seeds from R.H.

I haven't checked out Baker Creek, thanks for pointing it out.<br /><br />There is nothing like growing your own food. From a tiny seed, we are fed. A miracle I never cease to hold in awe.<br /><br />Fern<br />Frank and Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570058990887565563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-75182066854560450362014-01-14T19:24:59.455-06:002014-01-14T19:24:59.455-06:00I find I learn something either way, whether it wo...I find I learn something either way, whether it works or not.<br /><br />FernFrank and Fernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570058990887565563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-6930391337829987372014-01-14T19:24:18.317-06:002014-01-14T19:24:18.317-06:00I hope to learn how to successfully grow onions fr...I hope to learn how to successfully grow onions from you this year.

The seed catalogs get well tattered before we make our final selections. I have spend a few days getting our Bio domes sorted out and all of the small starter pots are cleaned and refilled with soil mix. We use seeds we have saved and try some mew varieties of things each year, space being limited we do have to get creative. I look forward to following your seeds from planting to table. Its a satisfying journey for all isn't it. Have you ever looked into Baker Creek seeds? www.rareseeds.com A great site with outstanding service and seed selection!Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348495575211204989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-53562705272434295772014-01-14T01:23:13.367-06:002014-01-14T01:23:13.367-06:00I'm thinking about just sprouting some wheat b...I'm thinking about just sprouting some wheat berries in the greenhouse so I can plant something. I'm hoping that if they fail, I will just shrug it off as a failure to grow chicken fodder. Nevertheless, I'm thinking about it more every day. I should just start already!Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06848643822308909132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003348645601520194.post-54969922718338409862014-01-13T10:46:02.244-06:002014-01-13T10:46:02.244-06:00I will be starting my onions soon as well!
