A visit to get more seed

I went to Bloom Greenhouse to get seeds from Annapolis Seeds.

Wow, that was a visit I did not regret!  They have seeds from Annapolis Seeds, Halifax Seed, a large yard with bagged soils, composts, helpful staff, and a wide selection of gardening items to choose from.

I will return for the compost enriched soils, or just the plain compost, but I bought cherry tomato seeds, three different types, and should have about a month and a half head start.  I wished I went three weeks ago, when they opened, but I had no idea other people would want seedlings for cherry tomatoes.  Now I do.

Spent a bit on this experiment, and though the return has been low so far, I still have lots of plants in excess of what I will need, so I may still make a bit more.  If I pay for just one light bank, then I will be happy.  The majority of it was just to figure out what could be done, what not to do, and how to do it better next time.

Unlike last year, this season has not been a complete waste.

The only one stopping me is me now.  I do have a habit of getting in my own way, but hopefully I won't trip over my own feet with my seedling trays in my hands.  I don't care if I break an arm, but don't hurt the sweet red apple peppers!

I have been eager to try those peppers since I saw the seeds on Annapolis Seeds' website.  Thick walled, sweet red pepper.  Can't wait!

Now all I need is the land.  And I can't forget patience.  Nothing more important then patience when gardening.
