It was so thrilling to watch the seeds turn into green shoots and then vegetables!!! I felt like a kid, and I was blown away by the wonder of God's creation. Starting seeds indoors did not work for me. In fact, the seeds did absolutely nothing indoors. But they flourished outdoors. I didn't buy cucumbers, green peppers, or green onions the entire summer. The tomatoes didn't do so well, but I'm hoping for a better garden this year! Can't wait to hear how yours progresses!Hannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243838931238656549.post-72813439765078767672010-01-21T10:27:15.601-05:002010-01-21T10:27:15.601-05:00I too am struggling to follow through... exact sam...I too am struggling to follow through... exact same experience last year with my tomato seedlings, except once it flew off the table, my dogs played with the egg carton...<br /><br />A number of years ago, I did have a successful garden and my source was (no kidding) the Klutz Kids Gardening Book. (Actual title may be slightly different.) But, Klutz has a gardening book for kids and it is very, very straightforward and clear. When I read a typical gardening book, my eyes glaze over in the discussion of soil quality. This book just had me add lots of compost and dig it in. The garden really did grow amazingly well that year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
