I've tranferred the seeds I soaked overnight over to the mini greenhouse but uh.

so, I made a small mistake. I was using the peat pellets that were in small bags made of biodegradable corn starch, and thats what I thought I had bought.
However, the pellets I bought are made out of coconut fiber, which like peat bog, is EXTREMELY water absorbent, and good for nursing your seeds to germination. The only difference is that they didn't have the little baggies. which means transplanting them will be a little more challenging, but overall I should be fine.
Also, the tray is WAY heavier. this dirt took fucktons of water into it, and you'd never know.
@da_667 which grow zone are you in? Im in 8a. I feel like it's too late to plant anything at this point

there is a lot of unused real-estate here that I can use for starting other seeds. I'm just not sure what else I want to start at this point. More green beans and peas might be nice.

@Rayve33n I'm in 6a/6b up in Michigan. Its not uncommon to plant around this time around these parts. Memorial day is usually when its considered "safe" around here. Though next year, I might consider starting the seeds earlier than March.

@da_667 if you like stuffed peppers so much, grow your own bell peppers?

stuffed tomatoes and stuffed cabbage leaves use more or less the same filling, if you want to switch up a bit. we cycle through all three pretty regularly.

@paul_ipv6 @da_667 i do like coring tiny tomatoes and putting those fresh-mozzerella snacky balls or lumps of fresh mozzerella in there with a dab of that basil from a tube and a dash of balsamic and eating them whole
a little caprese parcel!

@da_667 thought about your own kidney beans or great northers? I have no idea what’s involved, but that seems like a good idea.

@Viss I have a ton of bell peppers and chili peppers maturing in the planter right now. They're just now starting to develop secondary leaves, so I'm hopeful that they'll be ready to go outside soon.
