The Beginnings of the Garden--Onions are Sprouting

I put a bunch of seeds in peat pots last week and the onions are up already. It's always amazing to watch plants grow. We've had some warmer weather lately which has melted all the snow off the garden and left me with a bunch of mud. We'll get cold weather plants in as soon as I can work in the dirt out there. Looking forward to growing some fun things in the garden this year.

Hi--I came across your blog one day... I think I was googling cherries or something... Anyhow, I'm enjoying your posts. I love this stuff!

Are these those "Jiffy" starter sets? We're using those for the first time right now and everything's great except the corn. Have you ever used it for corn? I don't think it's common to start corn inside, but I wanted to try it and see how it went. And now I'm wondering if my problem is old seeds or the starter set...

I have the walking onions and they are out all year round. They are also starting to green up and look good. I've still got snow on the ground and the onions are growing nicely.

It's always exciting to me to see the new sprouts peeking out.
