...I got my seeds in, and I am SO EXCITED. I know that some gardeners out there have already started their seedlings, but I'm planning on this coming weekend to begin.
That is, if I can manage to rig my new grow lights properly. And here it will begin, in egg cartons in my tub in the warmest room of my house just below the glow of some new flourescents.
I'm tempted to buy more seeds, and I may just get a few more that I've been thinking about. Really I have enough, but seeds have become a bad shopping addiction. I any case, I'm happy with what I have. And how much I've spent. So far on seeds $58.84, and

And each was $11. Cord and plug pre-attached and everything. The other ones are going back to Home Depot, I can definitely get to planting this weekend, and I'm looking at more like $80 so far for the season. Which isn't bad considering you could spend that much in one trip to Whole Foods whereas this is a season's whole growth and some nice reusable equipment.
