You know what this means, right? It's indoor seed-starting time in my area. I've got my empty cells, seeds, potting soil, and master list of what I plant, how much, and when.
Once the seeds are planted, I need a way to tell which are which. Some seedlings look an awful lot like others. And sometimes, they require different spacing when going out into the garden. So I took an empty plastic milk jug and cut it into strips, using ordinary kitchen scissors. Sharpies work great on this plastic surface. I made a mistake on one and could not rub off the name. So, I'm pretty certain these plant labels will fare well with watering. Free plant labels. Woo hoo!
My flat of early season veggies is seeded, labeled and under lights. Now it's a matter of waiting for sprouts to grow.
I'll start a second flat of different veggies, flowers and herbs in another 10 days. I have indoor capacity under lights for 4 flats altogether. And every year I use every last spot for seeds.
How about you? Will you be starting some seeds indoors any time soon?
