A week to go before planting.

I have taken the final week of May off work to get the planting beds setup, and the seedlings transplanted.  At this point the corn and at least one very eager bean plant are already tall enough to be growing past the light fixtures a bit;



The pumpkin seedlings are getting their first big leaves;


The beans are really taking off, the burgundy species has purple stems making them easy to tell apart from the normal green bean seedlings;



The broccoli may need to stay indoors longer than some of the faster growing veggies, though I may still plant everything all at once and hope for the best.  Mistakes must be made to learn and all that.



And last but certainly not least, there has finally been germination for the bell peppers (which I don't recall having a problem with the last time), the celery, and at least one of the cayenne peppers.  And yes, I know I spelled the plant markers incorrectly.


Will post again as things get underway next weekend.
