    Default Buying Seeds Now for New Garden?

    Hey all!

    The garden centre is starting to close out nearby, which means that they may stop stocking seeds pretty soon. I'd like to get some now for the impending move next year, but is it really worth it? Should I get the seeds now when they're cheaper, or just wait until we move and know for sure of what house we're buying to get them?

    I'd buy them now b/c they're on sale and they won't take up that much room in your move right?

    True. I'm just wondering about the rest of the goodies to start seeds indoors (like the soil, containers, etc.) I'll be going over to Superstore tomorrow anyways to look at school supplies, so I'll check their seed selection and pick up at least a bag of soil and some containers.

    I know Mike will get all uppity if I bring in items when we're trying to get rid of what we don't need.

    ummm, I'm on Mike's side with this one. Why buy more if you have to move it?

    Would I still be able to get containers and soil early enough next year to start the seeds indoors in, say, February?
