garden update: started another round of seeds. I have a few more bell pepper seeds, some peas, some beans, carrots, and zucchini squash seeds soaking in water. I'm gonna leave them to soak overnight, then put them into the mini greenhouse.
Meanwhile, the planter nursery is doing well. I have three more pea vines sprouting. Might not be easy to see in the picture but on the right planter towards the bottom of the image, are some very tiny thin plants. Those're carrots that sprouted.
The squash seedlings that were there officially outgrew the nursery, and were starting to flop over, so they were transplanted over to the raised garden bed outside, and planted a bit deeper to give them a better chance to stabilize.
over in the right nursery further back you might notice two leafy green seedlings in the back, those are green bean sprouts. They're doing VERY well, and I think that them, and the other pea vines may be ready to be transferred outside in the next week or so.
All of the bell/chili pepper sprouts seem to be progressing, albeit slowly. I'm noticing that SEVERAL of them are growing secondary leaves, and growing progressively taller, so we'll have to wait and see. I'm nervous about putting such small seedlings outside in the raised bed, but I really do think that they need to be thinned out and planted to have a chance of growing.
The first pea vine I transferred outside is still doing its thing. I'm not noticing much growth, and I'm wondering if I should give it some plant food/fertilizer to promote growth.
I also potatoes in a 15 gallon outdoor garden sack in a mixture of half topsoil, but I haven't seen any progress or growth yet. We'll have to see what happens with them. The instructions say that they need to be buried deep, but that you can't put all the soil they're buried in back in place, that you have to restore it gradually as the vines continue to grow. I have never seen instructions like that before for growing potatoes.

@da_667 Series B Seed Round ???
@xan this is round 3 for seeds. First round, I soaked the seeds for multiple days, didn't get that strong of a yield. Switched to soaking for just one day, and almost all the seeds sprouted.
super excited for my garden this year, and praying that everything takes.

I need to grab some more dirt to fill my remaining 15 gallon bags. I also want to get cherry tomatoes and I'm not sure what variety of big tomato I want. I usually do beefsteak or hothouse, but maybe I'll do romas this year? Not sure.

@da_667 Heirloom if you can get them.

@infoseclogger duly noted, brother. I'll see if my local nursery has any

@da_667 I like the Cherokee varieties. Heirloom and indeterminate.
