Seed Tape

home made seed tape
Last night I went a little nuts gluing tiny seeds to pieces of newspaper. This morning I planted two of the lettuce strips out in the garden just to see how it works out. I glued carrots, beets, radishes and lettuce to the newspaper with flour paste. All are veggies I have problems with spacing in the garden. If the lettuce comes up well I'll try making some different shapes for planting in pots, or in staggered rows.

Pepper Seedlings

Two weeks back I started some sweet banana pepper seeds. Most came up and now I have to baby them for 8 more weeks. I started some eggplants at the same time and they look much the same. I planted four types of tomatoes, scallions, and basil this morning.
