Got tomatoes, peppers, onions, mint and basil started. My plastic cover for my trays broke. So, I tented plastic wrap over straws stuck in the soil in the trays. Seems to be working ok. Now we'll see if anything starts as I used old seed.

We've had better luck with vesseys out of new Brunswick as we live closer to the Canadian boarder and have similar weather. Johnny 's is good though.

I got my seed packets and my seed starter soil and my trays---here I go too. I have lots of saved seed too. It is fun.
Here we can't plant seeds outside until the soil reaches 50degrees. I used to buy all my seeds from Johnnys in Maine because we have about the same growing season. Odd isn't it. MB

We can't plant outside until the end of may here in Maine so things need to be started. In the south, you're 1/4 into your gardens when we get started.

I'm going to wait a few more weeks. I can't wait

I have found the plastic wrap to work just fine, in some cases, even better. Good luck, Lorena!
