Trying to make my father proud, I placed a few seeds in each spot of my seed starting kit. The result---15 tomato plants, 10 bell pepper plants, 2 jalepeno plants, and 10 struggling strawberry seedlings. After they all came up, I realized that John-Mark and I may be the only ones in the Atkinson household this summer that care for tomatoes. Any other takers? Tristan? I can at least feed the neighborhood deer.
I'm counting on Benson's help with the strawberries.
Dad told me that I needed to get the seedlings some light as soon as they came up-so J-M and I spent far to much time selecting the right lightbulbs at Lowe's and then set the whole thing up over the microwave. I grew concerned that the micro waves weren't doing good things for them, though, so they've since been moved under the TV.
