sweet

found another place here to kick up my feet and burn one.... i grew my first veggies last year, and am now hooked. it's just like bud, there's nothing like enjoying the fruits of one's labors.

this year we will be growing the following:

brandywine tomato
hard rock tomato
burpee's delicious tomato(personal fav)
sugar snack hybrid cherry tomato

fat n sassy sweet peppers
lilac sweet peppers
nothing hot this year, it just goes to waste anyways

onions
sugar star peas
incredible sweet corn (yellow)

most all of my seeds came from totally tomatos. i used peat pucks to start seeds in. all of my sweet pepper seeds:


these pepper seeds sprouted in 2 weeks @ less than 72' under 4' shoplite.
after trying the individual peat pucks, i found this tray at walmart that holds them (72pucks) and is only $6. works great.

i don't have a whole lot of yardspace to devote to a garden, so i like to pack them in there. i don't do the organic thing, but i don't knock it. i do have organic topsoil & peat though for it.

i remember reading somewhere about something called "grow an exta row" to eradicate wold hunger. if every gardner/farmer grew 1 extra row, we could eliminate world hunger. food for thought. peace.

sure, grow a little for your local food bank or church type soup kitchen!

overgrow with food too! growing food and saving seeds = spending less, transporting less, and keeping control of your food supply

think "food sovreighnty"

Seedtoweed is on a distinguished road
I plan on having my first vegetable garden this year, with tomatoes, corn, squash, and possibly others. My backyard at my new house is small, but gets great light

Excellent selection, but I'm pretty pissed about the lack of customer service.

Maybe my seeds were seized at the border.

Just for record, these bastards have gotten 3-4 emails from me about my not receiving my veggie seeds and I've never gotten a single response. I got an automated email like 2 months ago saying they had shipped. From Oregon to the Southwest. Two months. Bastards.
