Haven't even planted anything yet and I am already behind schedule! Way to early in the season to fall behind. Let the fun begin!

I got a little to trigger happy with mine. I started mine on Feb 13. I've got tomatos 3" tall, the squash are pushng 4", the punkins are close to 6" and are going to get re-potted soon. For some reason it took my peppers 3 weeks to come up and are still only an inch tall. The watermelons aren't looking so hot, either. Really needs to warm up and stay warm. I'm gonna look silly if I have to re-pot 32 plants sitting around the house waiting to hit the dirt.

My wife and I planted 9 flats of tomatoes, peppers and eggplant 3 days ago (around 1000 seeds) ...they should be up soon. I built a new grow stand this year, but a dog size heat pad on the lower shelf, enclosed the whole thing in plastic. It is nice and bright and toasty in there. It will hold up to 15 flats.

I just finished putting together another greenhouse today, bought the $299 cheapie at harbor freight. I put them on a skid so I can move them in and out of the barn at night with the skid loader. Saves on heating them....then when it gets hot out I move them to the shade.

I ordered around fifty packets from Stokes and Baker Creek. Hope they get here soon. Building my little green house throughout the next couple weeks.
