This Blog is actually several separate blogs. This, the Main Blog, is for my ramblings about everything else that other blogs do not cover. Things like my pottery, my wife’s art work (mainly watercolor), travel, nature observations, book reviews and whatever else comes to mind. Feel free to leave comments about any of the posts.

Monthly Garden Season Update #1
Trailing Snapdragon seeds that I started January 19 are now 1” high on average. They are under full spectrum fluorescent lights 24/7. I planted 18 seeds in 9 Jiffy style pots and 13 have germinated, that’s 72.2% rate. Johnny’s Seeds had printed 60% on the seed packet so I guess I can’t complain. Now I have to find out how long should I keep them under the light. I am new to this, this is only my second year that I started flowers from seeds. It is a bit different then herbs and vegetables. Time to post some questions on Garden Web, I think. I really want that trailing snapdragon for our front porch hanging basket.

The little leaves really have a spring green color.
Sign of things to come.
Very alive and strong already.
