Spring planting

Because of my distrust of the SuperSoil (TM) i bought last year, i decided to switch the my planting plans around: twenty peat pellets and nine little peat tubs.

The peat tubs are filled with a mixture of my compost and the supersoil. The peat pellets are from Gardener’s Delight. I think the peat tubs were the same brand.

On to planting notes!

basil [1] basil calendula, lt [2] calendula, dk
sunflower dill statice statice
ancho (3) ancho (3) sunflower celosia
ancho (3) nasturtium (2) coleus (3) coleus (3)
nasturtium (2) catnip cleome marigold (4)

[1] I think it’s too cold for basil, but giving it a try, anyhow.
[2] i separated the calendula seeds into light & dark seeds. I don’t know if that means one plant with darker flowers than the other — but let’s find out!

In the ginger planter, i added seeds for dill & cleome. I sprinkled with hot pepper to discourage squirrels.
