Re: HOLIDAYS


It's great to salivate over those seed catalogues, but I think either old
age or reality is finally settling in for me!  I started thinking of all
the times I started seeds inside, and probably failed 90% of the time. 
Either nothing came up, or they got too leggy, or dampened off, or or or !!
So, my hubby and I will try to construct fluorescent lights under shelves
of a shelf unit, and try one more time as semi-amatuers.  I don't have any
problems starting my begonias or dahlias inside in pots - my spare room
looks like a jungle by April!  It's those darn seeds.

Any advice?  Encouragement?
