Side with the Seeds

"Side with the Seeds" isn't just a track off the newest Wilco record. It's also what I did today with the help of my four year old son. He and I got out the seed starting kit, some sterile soil and the seeds that we had saved from last year's garden. Today's planting was the first of the year. Instead of using plastic cells, this year, I decided to go with peat pots, which can then be planted directly into the ground without disturbing the root system when they get removed. It's early yet to start too much but we did several varieties of peppers and tomatoes, which will go outside in the wall-o-water protective insulator when it warms up a bit. We also started some yellow onions. All these are now under the light in the laundry room. Let the growing begin.
