i am running out of room.

my table down stairs is filled up with peppers.
the plant stand in the guest room is filled up with tomatoes.
the sunny windows are filled up with micro tomatoes, and late going peppers, and
tomatoes, and broccoli, cabbage, and kale that just got transplanted to individual
cell packs. my lettuce transplants are on the north side windows, no place else to put them. basil still needs transplanting. second round of lettuce, and greens are seeded. oh, still have to transplant cherry tomatoes.

marigold seeds planted, nasturtiums still to go. where to put them??

the problem is i started more peppers than normal, and a little too early to boot.
i know better, but i was antsy to get started.
i also have a few more varieties of tomatoes going than makes sense, not that sense
comes into the picture. some of those varieties are nine to thirteen year old seeds. double sow, the older seeds they say because not all of them will sprout. so, with most of the older seeds, i now have twice as many tomatoes because most every seed sprouted.
what i plan on doing is taking a few trays of tomatoes into work. the store front has large windows facing east, and south with a nice ledge to put things on. i have a few micro tomatoes there already. the store manager humors me, and lets me bring in plants as long as they don't exceed two feet in height. i might even sell a few as long as it doesn't interfere with work, maybe two bucks a plant.
i could buy more shop lights, and set them up in the basement, but i best not go
further in that direction.
