    Default Seed planters?

    Anybody have any experience with these types of planters?

    Can you tell I started getting gardening catalogs?

    OK - RC - we can tell - you are getting your catalogs. That is one of the great things about winter --- GARDEN CATALOGS!!!! So you can dream that spring is truly coming.

    I can't help you out with this one...........and quit drooling over all the new 'garden toys' that you think you NEED!!! I DO have a little Mantis Tiller and absolutely love it! A little power horse!

    Do you plant a huge garden?
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

    It's not frugal, but it does get RAVE reviews from everything I've read on the inernet!

    YES! I love my gardens, hate the weeds though. This coming year I think will be my largest "canning/freezing" garden ever. I'm planning on growing as many as 25 broccoli because we eat so much of it.

    Omg Russ, so I'm reading Eliots book and it has all these BEAUTIFUL photos of these beds..so later he says...well I have this seeder...etc etc...it's the best one we've ever had..etc...then he goes on to say he and some of the people he hangs out with designed it. But I MUST say...everything I've read has RAVE reviews instead of ...mediocre reviews....

    then he said.. just fill every other seed cup when ya wanna plant 4 inches apart. OMG.......

    I'm thinking not going to the chiropractor all spring and summer would pay for one! LOL
