Yes, I know what you are thinking, "but it's still winter". Yes it is, especially here in Northern Ontario where the snow is still waist high. Oh, how my dogs do love catching snowballs!
However growing vegetables indoors isn't really all that hard. I started my celery and lettuce a week ago already. They are one of the few that only need water to regrow.
Than of course, I went to walmart yesterday and obtained some sort of seed starter. So, why not?
I planted everything from corn and watermelon to turnip and onions. I even did double rows of peas and carrots. Carrots are used most in this house ( I have a pet rabbit, remember?) and peas well because I just love raw peas. Have eaten them with my mom and sister right from my parents garden for as long as I could remember!
Labelled everything with little popsicle sticks because my memory with things like this sucks lol and hopefully they'll start growing.
When spring rolls around and they start selling dirt at the stores. I'm going to build some raised garden boxes and then I'll transfer them outside.
I can't wait to not have to buy vegetables anymore :)
I also want to plant my own apple and lemon trees. I'll be saving my own seeds and drying them out to use.
Check me out being all self-sufficient and all :D
