My personal attachment to my germinators

kpatrick925 · June 24, 2011

Ok, so this year I started most (80%) from seed. This is my first year growing anything from seed. Of course I started way too many because what if one didn't germinate???? Well, pretty much everything grew and what I have found is that I now have a personal attachment to everyone of those little guys!!! I have limited space but have managed to pack 20 tomato plants of 14 varieties in containers, 22 various pepper plants, some squash, artichokes, pumpkins, and cucumbers some in ground and some in containers. I have given 15 or so tomato plants to good homes, also some squash, pumpkins and cucs. I still have 20 or so tomato plants in little 4 inch starter pots and can't seem to give them away but have no space to grow them. LOL. I did not realize how much more attached I would become to those I started myself!! My family definetly thinks I have lost my mind but of course want to know when they can come get their share.

Oh well, If this is insane I think I like it!!
