Greenhouse Magic

Here are just a few pictures to show the progress of everything in the greenhouse by Mid-March.  If this warm weather keeps up, we may be transplanting before we know it.  But all in good time, these little babies are still delicate and will get much bigger before they actually get their bottoms planted into the ground.

Cabbage:

Onions, after their tops were trimmed for the first time:

Broccoli:

Tomatoes, that will later be grafted onto the rootstock.

This is the farm.  Quiet. Serene. But not for long....

Simple Seedy Seedlings

Without much snow this winter and those teasing days of beautiful 60 degree weather every other week, I've had enough already.  Daylight savings in this weekend and the daylight hours are growing by the minute each day.  I am ready for warm breezes, the hot sunshine, and a garden full of food!  In anticipation of the growing season, I've started a few of my seeds inside already. I know a few of them may be a little early, but I just couldn't help myself.  I started these on Feb. 2.

Below is are the Borage seedlings that are the largest in the tray.  I will be transferring them into separate little containers within the next few days to give them more room.
Borage is an annual plant that has beautiful blue star-shaped flower clusters and very furry leaves.  This is my first time growing Borage, so I will be sure to let you know how it goes and what I end up using it for.
