Oops, when I see it now I realize I am showing my age...
Second posting of this thread is a photo of her WS jugs. The thing is, she already has a full and beautiful garden!
She was planning on making a new raised bed this year but now it looks like those plans are on hold so I'm not sure what she'll do with all her plants. Give some away, maybe sell some? Who knows. First they have to germinate. and then she'll have to pot them up and I'm not sure she even thought of that part
Well, I probably started because starting from seeds was so much cheaper. Now, with seeds and postage so much higher I do it more to get the varieties I want, and to save some money by starting them myself. Sometimes it's just to see if I can do it. That's what happened with the alstroemeria. But I had lots of failures along the way, damping off, no germination, leggy plants, and on and on. It's the successes that keep you going. and I give away a lot of plants to friends.
But it is fun to watch to see what germinates, when and then watch it grow. Very fulfilling!
