Seedy Sunday: Montana greenhouse gardening begins

Gardening season in Montana is a practice in patience and persistence. Last week I started seeds: A hopeful gift for the future us. Those seeds included: Purple Cherokee and Red Cherry tomatoes, Dragon Cucumber, Boston Pickling Cucumber, Lemon Cucumber, yellow squash, zucchini, green bush, purple and yellow beans, sugar peas, cilantro, basil, decorative pumpkins and catnip. To my surprise I had 100% germination rate by starting them in wet paper towels inside a baggie in the dark. If all those babies decide to sprout, I am looking forward to giving some plants away.

Next step: buy a buncha dirt. Then we can get the greenhouse crankin!

P.S. I’m totally just not accepting the snow currently in the forecast for tonight. No. No snow.

Seeds are in the dirt and the child has begun his watering duties. (Which he takes very seriously, I might add.)
