Seeds are sprouting!

My seeds are starting to come up!

Plant tally so far:

- 3 lettuce
- 6 cherry tomato
- 2 blades of cat grass

I don't know how long it takes the other seeds to pop up, but just in case they're not planning to pop up because I did something wrong, or because of those peppers/pumpkins that I jumbled up immediately after planting, I'm going to start another flat of each. I tried to pick up another of the "greenhouse" style kits that I got at Wal-Mart, but they were sold out. I'm off to Home Depot after work to see if they have something I could use.

I'm feeling pretty happy that I'm going to get something out of this gardening adventure after all, because I spent quite a bit of money on the seeds for this year! My only concern now is where I'm going to plant these once they are big enough to go outside. I might have to give up the garden from last year, and start over on the other side of the house, where there is no devil's grass, because all that grass I ripped out the other day had significantly re-grown by the very next day! My only concern with the other side of the house is that it's very exposed, which might be good as far as sunlight goes, but not so good as far as people meddling goes. But seriously, not having to deal with the devil's grass might be enough to sway me! Maybe I could set up some sort of make-shift fence to guard it. Must think on this. . .
