Quite a few items popped up over the last few days:
* Several varieties of tomatoes (brandywine, san marzano, isis, coustralee, tomatillo)
* Several basils and other herbs

Still waiting on peppers, eggplants to show. Today or tomorrow, we'll do round two, with more of the same and some other items that (we think) are better to start later.

Probably start a tray of lettuces and a few herb pots, too.

We're adding a significant amount of square footage (in boxes) to our current space, so later today I'll start planning how space will be allocated. But for now, it's really just about growing a bunch -- the more, the better.

Seeing as it’s getting closer to gardening season and some were curious, here are some pics of my seed starting setup. This was my original light set, an AgroBrite 8 tube fluorescent on a 2x4 stand. Worked well, but took up counter space in the shop where I start seeds and wasn’t very mobile. The sides are covered with white poster board. I still use them (I have 2) but may phase them out. There’s a heat mat on the bottom. #seedstarting #gardening #plants
