a new obsession

2008.04.06
Meet my little greenhouse. On the menu: tasty red zinnias.

Carefully adding exactly 35 ml of warm water into each pellet...

watch them get all fat as I added the water!

and now to add 2-3 seeds to each pellet

a few more little sprinkles of warm water here and there...

no one ever goes in the dining room anyway, so it's going to be the new home for my greenhouse! Check it out, it kinda looks like a huge to-go pack of sushi! mmmm

Ay, you know me! Always gotta be doing something or other.

So, it's springtime. And I decided that this is the year I will become a real-live gardner! Ta-da!

Remember my one little gardening experiment last year? Well, this year I'm getting started like a pro. Here's what's going down:
I'm planning some zinnias, California poppies, and a whole trailing wall thing of nasturtiums. I'm starting the zinnias indoors (that's what all these pictures are about) since there is still danger of frost at night and early morning until mid- or late-April. I'm going to plant the poppies directly in the soil outdoors, since a light frost won't hurt them, and I'm putting the nasturtiums in window planters. You'll see. I'm very excited!
