Indoor Gardening

I remember when I was little my dad would always start his summer garden in trays in our house.  I decided to follow in his footsteps this year and plant myself an indoor garden.


I went to Home Depot and purchased my indoor gardening tray that comes complete with peat pellets.  The peat pellets are great for transplanting the seedlings outside when the weather gets warmer.  They are small discs of peat and when you add water they 'grow' to a small 1.5-2" net of soil.  You can open the top of the small net that surrounds the soil and begin to plant your seeds.


The seeds I also picked up from the Home Depot, I chose tomatoes, dill, onions, spinach, mini bell peppers, and two types of flowers.  I also bought peas and more flowers for when the weather gets nicer to be able to plant outside!  Peas are my favorite freshly grown veggie.
