Petunias From Seed

I started some petunias from seed this year and I learned a lot about them! They are picky little things! They need the soil to be very very warm to germinate. So a seed tray warming pad is essential. I thought that most of mine were duds until they sat outside in a 90 degree […]

Indoor Tomatoes Have Fruit!

My indoor tomatoes have fruit on them! I had to pollinate them myself when they had blossoms. I have never done this before but I must have done it right because the tomatoes came. 🙂 I did it with a spoon so I could catch the pollen and redistribute it to the other blossoms without […]

Lighting change

So, I have discovered that tomatoes need a lot of light. Mature plants need more light especially if they are going to flower/fruit soon. So I am increasing the light on my mature plants to 18-20 hours per day. That should get them to flower/fruit. 🙂 The seeds and seedlings that I have started for […]

Potting Soil and other things :)

So, I have discovered a few things about potting soil, and seed starting soil etc… that I want to share with you! Seed starting soil: Already has fertilizer in it! Unless your soil is over 6+ months old do NOT use a fertilizer when you water! Seed starting mix has a lot of Peat Moss […]
