Our Little Urban Garden, Part 3

Dateline: March 26

Something is going right...we have three little sprouts. Granted, I can't tell you which pepper is which. I failed to mention previously that my four year old threw a bit of a tantrum the night the seeds were planted and some of the seeds were displaced from their little holes. It's going to be one HUGE surprise to see what actually took off and what didn't!

Dateline: April 4

Wow, these little guys are doing tremendously well in their little container world. Chris says we have about a 70% success rate so far. I'm not sure what stage we actually put these in the ground outside. I guess I should start asking those kind of questions and be well informed!

Our Little Urban Garden, Part 2

Dateline: March 15, 2012

Time to start some seeds and see if we can make them grow to something 

we can eat in the coming months.

My oldest had to get on the action and help daddy plant the seeds.
He's more anxious about this garden than anyone I think!

Putting the seeds in the beginning soil thingy (I guess I should actually know what it is called
before I put it up here for all to see how little I really know about gardening).

The one slight mishap of the initial planting was the fact that the soil pellets (for lack of the right term)
should have been watered BEFORE the seeds were placed. Lesson learned. Our hopes of anything
actually sprouting are diminishing quickly.

We are *hoping* to grow all kinds of wonderful peppers.

Stay tuned to see if anything actually sprouted or not....
