Sprouting Seeds and More Planted

This week has been quite interesting with all the sprouting of many of my seeds that were grown this past month.  I am finally seeing spinach beginning to grow and it only took the entire month of March to do so.  It would be better if they started sprouting a week or two ago, but it is better late than never.

Most of my flowers have began sprouting including sunflowers, calendula, Queen Anne’s lace, amaranthus, cosmos, dill, alyssum, and much more.  Both lettuce types have began sprouting as well.

Here are some pictures of my sprouting plants.

Here are calendula, sunflowers, amaranthus, Queen Anne’s lace, and cosmos flowers.

Last but not least spinach.

That is all that is beginning to sprout at the moment. I am hoping that my watermelon seeds will begin sprouting, but only time will tell.

I also planted some straight eight cucumbers along with cantaloupe this afternoon.  In another week I should be starting my zucchini and pumpkin planting.  I had success last year by planting them the last day of March.  That is what I am aiming for this season.
