We started gardening earlier this year. Nancy and I both enjoy working the soil and love watching things grow. We also wanted to eat better food that are free from pesticides and worker exploitation. Saving money would also be great.
Here we have our seedling that we planted a couple of weeks ago. There are five trays poised, I hope, to capture the winter sun at Spock Laboratories.

I sketched out what the book, "How To Grow More Vegetables", (here is a link to the February 2012 edition) stated would be good winter vegetable and were one that we wanted to eat. Then I made this little map.
The graph paper was made from regular inkjet paper and a template from incompetech.com which has a bunch of cool stuff beside free graph paper templates. I made notes on our transplanting timelines, and what went where. I made little hash marks on the boxes every two inches to mark off where to place the seeds and numbered the boxes. The numbers correspond to the map.
I guess these guys will be ready to transplant at the end of January and be ready some time between April and June. Meanwhile, we still have a lot of our fall plants doing well in the ground, as well as the seedlings that we started about two months ago.
I am amazed at all this life around us!
