Okay this first picture is actually to show off my first tomato baby :-P I had to!!
Okay now for the big news: My babies are all almost ready to transplant into the GrowBoxes!!! YES! I said it! THIS weekend will be filled with DIRT and Transplanting!!
I started a bunch of seeds in my Aerogarden back on May 8th. Well they've all been growing so well that I ended up moving the four Grand Rapids Leaf Lettuce and twoof the larger Black Seeded Simpson Lettuces over to the smaller AeroGarden because they were shadowing everything else! hehe Growing SOOO big so fast!
Here is the 6 pods out on the porch "hardening" to the weather so they can be transplanted into the soil! You have to harden the roots on hydroponically grown plants before transplanting so they are strong enough to live in the dirt. MAJOR change in bedroom decor!! :-P
I've also got one of the Tomatillo plants (seeds courtesy of Joseph) that totally outgrew the Aerogarden in three days! I kid you not!! haha I had to transplant it after only 2 weeks! It's already almost 8 inches tall!
Here is the bog Aerogarden filled with all sorts of babies!! Let's see... beets, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, green onions, spinach, tomatillos, romaine lettuce, black simpson lettuce, buttercrunch lettuce, german chamomile and some dark opal purple basil!
Some seeds didn't sprout and some things didn't grow well - but that is why we plant MORE than what we need!!
I'll post more pics this weekend as we transplant all these babies!
Keep it green!!!
Beautiful!!!!
