Planting the Seeds

I've never really, truly planted veggies or fruit or diffcult plants of any sort.  My mom showed me how to make pretty baskets, plant trees, shrubs - you know the landscaping stuff.  However, last year I tried some adhoc planting from plants my cousin gave me.  I had a few strawberries my daughter ate, one sunflower that randomly appeared (new house so prob was there before), and a whole bunch of green tomatoes.  So, I was motiviated to make this year actually profitable for my home.

I planted a whole bunch of seeds Feburary 27. 

I bought the seed eight pack compostable containers and put my seedlings in the soil.  I bought the special soil just for new planting.  After such they were put on the table in the office, which is warm and hung a shop light above the seeds. 

The next day, I bought the plastic covers and put all seeds in them to get them sprouted up.  Each of the plants were carefully watered. 

A few days afterward, I found this on my daughter's flowers.
