Ok, you guys are really good for me. I am going to get
off my lethargic rear and go to the home center and buy
my seeds. I have these really odd looking seed starter
things that are made from a material you can put right in
the soil once a healthy plant has emerged. There are about
24 lil containers in one box and it even has a lid that turns
it into a lil mini green house.
I'll be looking for more seeds in the online catalogs and
from other sources. If I run across any really good or
unusual deals I'll let you know.
You guys have given me a lot to think about and really lit
a fire under my arse, Thanks!
I can see now from more recent postings that the "bickering"
was more like good natured prodding. If I offended anyone
with my prior postings I apologize. It's a good thing in life
weather it be online or in person to feel comfortable enough
with your friends to be able to have that kind of banter.
