I got the seeds started for our fall harvested vegetables. We bought these little seed starting trays on Amazon — a tray, a 12-cell insert, and a humidity dome with an adjustable vent. The kit came with plant markers … but it seemed silly to write something permanent on the marker. So I turned them into reusable markers by adding some of the blue tape you use for painting a room (because that’s what we’ve got & pen works OK on it). First I put three of the markers in a line on the tape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started the normal fall veggies — broccoli, broccolini, chard, and lots of cabbages. But I also started a sweet tomato that’s meant to produce in 60<\/a> days and a watermelon that’s supposed to produce in just 75 days<\/a>. That’ll be the end of September so maybe<\/em> we’ll get some watermelon this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
