Alright. Seeds are in the soil. The season is starting. I actually saw some sun this week. Tired of the cold wind and dark clouds. I’m hungry for summer. Lets get some food in the ground.
Most of the seeds we ordered have arrived. We're now starting with the aubergines (eggplants), because they take forever to germinate, I’ve got a few starting out in the windowsill greenhouse. This year we’re doing Snowy Aubergines as well as the regular purple ones. Also have cucumbers and tomatoes going.
This year we’re looking forward to trying some different heirloom tomato varieties. The last 2 years we just had 2 beefsteak plants, and while that was fun, I’m interested to see what all those other crazy tomatoes taste like. Right now, we’re doing tigerella, green zebra, black krim, black cherry, brandywine red, brandywine yellow, principe borghese and san marzano, plus some regular tiny tims.
Hopefully this year, it will be a bit more organized. We’ve got even more stuff than last year, and that filled half our apartment for a month with seedlings. Hell, the next time we move, it’s gonna be somewhere with a garden attached so we can do all of this outside instead of in the living room.
