Vegetable plants - SandyS - 06-25-2010

Wondering where to go to look for a nice variety of vegetable plants?
Walmart and Home Depot have a few, but I thought there might be somewhere else I might check out.

Makuu market usually. But you save so much money just buying packets of seed and things here grow so quickly they're usually the size of vegetables you buy within a month or so.

And where do you put those seeds?

I plant my seeds in 3" peat pots in those little green house trays that home depot carries. Keep out of direct sunlight, keep pots damp, most seeds sprout in 4-6 days, when sprouts appear, remove from greenhouse trays, when first true leaves are fully formed, I plant pot and all in my raised beds.

Thanks, Dick. Sounds easy. Maybe I will start some papayas.
