When spring comes I will just plant everything I have.

I am now in the serious phase of seed starting where I have something almost every weekend that needs to be started or potted up etc. I moved my early start onions out to the unheated greenhouse to grow on some more before transplanting later this spring. The move frees up space under my grow lights but also starts the process of hardening them off.kitsapFGhttp://wwww.modernvictorygarden.com/apps/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-1120298152223296022012-01-21T08:01:44.964-05:002012-01-21T08:01:44.964-05:00Amber, I did Jeruselum Artichokes one year, but I ...Amber, I did Jeruselum Artichokes one year, but I was always worried they would never be able to get rid of them and my garden before was so small. So after they grew I dug them up and got rid of them. I didn't learn much about growing them. But they do get very very tall.<br /><br />wilderness, It is done in html. When I update it I go into it and change the values. I used to be a programmer so for me it is a simple little thing. I'm not sure how easy or hard it would be for someone that doesn't know html, but if you want I can send you the html. Just email me.<br /><br />Mark, well I do have an archive of seeds that I no longer use. Mostly things I don't need anymore (like sage seeds) or seeds that I've tried but probably won't grow again, or seeds that I don't think I have room for. I do grow most of the new seeds I buy for the year. The only exception might be the solanum family seeds. With my solanine poisoning, it is still questionable if they will get planted. But I think I will be able to. I have a ton of space now. I grow way more food than I can possibly eat. I have space for things. In my last garden I would plan the garden area before buying seed. But I just don't have to here. Plus I have a good handle on how much of what I want to grow.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-4964911735975287872012-01-21T06:25:34.190-05:002012-01-21T06:25:34.190-05:00I'm impressed by your scientific approach to s...I'm impressed by your scientific approach to sowing and planting. I'm afraid I don't have such self-discipline, and I tend to do it by instinct (which is not always right!)<br />I'd love to know the ratio of seeds bought to seeds sown is in my garden, because I often buy something I would LIKE to grow, but never find space for it.Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-49582552891136023112012-01-21T06:03:46.845-05:002012-01-21T06:03:46.845-05:00I am working on a similar time table for my seed. ...I am working on a similar time table for my seed.

I'm putting a copy of your list in my garden book, though, as inspiration for when I get my garden up and running next year when we have moved. It's an impressive list, wow!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986534679478221037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-8225705944085904372012-01-20T14:53:09.206-05:002012-01-20T14:53:09.206-05:00I've been working on garden planning a little ...I've been working on garden planning a little bit today as well. We had 8-inches of snow fall overnight and it is nice to think of the gardening right now :)<br /><br />I have my list together and am trying to fit everything into the garden plan.

But adding to the garden means extending the fencing (protection from our dogs and rabbits) so we are creating beds outside the garden for things that are less likely to be eaten by said animals. Anyone out there ever do Jeruselum Artichokes? I want to try them this year!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835916593662798037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-11854103774834511582012-01-20T13:33:09.507-05:002012-01-20T13:33:09.507-05:00Your schedule looks very helpful.

When we get it done, I'll add the dates to my electronic calendar.

Most other things were perfect for setting out at their proper times, so I'll just follow it again this year.

I am going to start my main tomato crop and peppers much later for a couple of reasons. One, the tomatoes were too much to handle last year and two, the community garden move.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12220238404223196571noreply@blogger.com
