| Howdy y'all,...basically, this is a bump. Planted out Kale, Broccoli, Cauliflower & Purple Pak Choi this morning. Anyone else planting Fall veggies? |
|
| I've got dark green zuchini squash, cauliflower snowball, spinach mustard tendergreen, endive escarole batavian, lettuce black seeded simpson, chinese spinach from thailand, jersey cabbage, broccoli, curled leaf mustard, purple top turnips, champion collards, brussel sprouts catskill, rape, mustard, organic radish french breakfast heirloom, grand rapids lettuce, rutabaga :))))) Some of the seeds I bought myself and some I traded for...it's awesome to buy seeds in bulk and then trade for the ones you didn't buy :) ...and most are coming up really nicely!...every time i look at them i get excited lol...and i'll be digging some of them up to pot as i thin them out to take to a plant swap :) |

| This should be the last message most of you will receive for this swap. Most people have sent their seed packages in and a few more should arrive by this weekend, I will go through all the packages and try to have them back to you by the end of the month. But for those that have missed out or want to participate in the swap, the 2013 New Years Everything Swap is now being posted, so please sign up today. Happy Thanksgiving to you all, many blessings.. Willy your host. |
