Have you been starting seeds indoors this week? I have because it is the 1st week of Spring! Here's a handy little article for sharing ( Seed Starting Tips – Learn About The Best Time To Start Seeds ), especially this part:
" The plants that should be started the earliest are broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower and head lettuce. Sow seeds for these indoors 10 weeks before the date of the last frost. "
I have about 100 different seed types this year and while it's fun to look through them all to pick & choose what I want to try in the different soil types, it's important to remember what should be started earliest. I didn't plant any of those types of seeds yet because I was working on getting the companion herbs & flowers started first. So I'm thankful for the reminder & now thinking about organizing seeds not only by type: companion, herb, root, etc. but also by when to start the seedlings!
