Normally I buy plants from my local hardware stores or nursery. This year tomatoes are almost $5 per plant, and very sad looking. So, this will be my first year starting tomatoes, peppers, and all of my herbs from seeds. I have an old platic shelving unit and a clear shower curtain for my makeshift greenhouse. It aint pretty, but it'll have to do. Hopefully I'm not too late starting with seeds. Normally I have everything planted by the last weekend in February.
Thanks pinusresinosa, I'm starting them this evening. It is perfect weather here, 81 and sunny today I may not need that makeshift green house after all.You'll love starting from seed, and it's definitely not too late- at least here. Still too early up north to start seeds like tomatoes and peppers (unless you have a really big and bright place to grow them on for an extended amount of time). Your greenhouse idea sounds perfect!
Seeds because it is cost effective. You just have to get weather predictions and plant them on time. It's a bit more work but a lot cheaper. Boskelli1571 what was the brand of that seed?
