Wind--
This year at the HD there is a new, organic seed starting mix.
it is extremely light and very, very fine. I used it instead of the MG seed starting mix.
It dries out quickly and i am always misting or watering the surface.

This link shows the smaller size bag. The one we got in (a whole palate-full)
was 12 dry qts. and was $5.47 (not sure). It is made by "Jiffy" which makes a lot
of all the other seed-growing supplies.

1--Here are my Tomato seedlings--the light is as high as I can get it--and they are
touching it. I have to say, though, that they are pretty leggy. I may plant them soon
and hope for the best.
2--These are my Parsley and basil seedlings. Parsley are up there as well....

I seeded these on March 13th.


BTW--HD is having another Spring Black Friday sale which starts today (4/17)
and goes through Sunday. Some sale items may go longer. Check out their site
