Pepper Plants
February 18, 2010

I have a bunch of peppers available so if you are near Surprise or in Phoenix near 35th Ave & Peoria let me know and I will get them ready for you.

I have Orange Habenero, Sweet Chocolate Bell, Purple Bell, Cayenne, Serrano and CalWonder, $.75 each.  I also have about 20 plants that are a mystery (funny how the name tags mysteriously disappear :) ) that you can have for $.25.  They are any of the above varieties.

I also have some very tiny tomato seedlings that are getting their first set of true leaves that got dumped (I might add, by my sweet 5 year old, on my white carpet (white carpet with 5 kids?…that’s a whole other story), on a day that my vacuum was broken) and are growing in a heap of dirt in/on the seed tray. They are either Early Girl, Sweet 100 or Yellow Pear and you can have them for FREE.  I could pot those up if someone might want them. There’s probably half a dozen or so.

Email me if interested in any of the above at clm_sam@msn.com

Excellent Seed Starting Book
January 15, 2010

This is for all of you out there who are trying to start seeds and also searching for an excellent resource to help you along the way.

The book is called  Gardener to Gardener Seed-Starting Primer & Almanac: A Month-By-Month Guide for Planning, Planting, and Tending Your Organic Garden (Rodale Organic Gardening Book) which you can buy pretty cheaply or you might even be able to get it at your local library, which I did.

It has helped me tremendously with the nitty gritty of how to’s of seed starting.
