Sprouting

Sprouts!

Cucumbers were the first thing that sprouted this year! April 7th began the onslaught of sprouts. Melons came soon after that. Specifically Mother Mary's Pie Melon, butternut and buttercup.

Still waiting on a few more to break ground in the trays.

Also received the tromboncino squash seeds and honeynut squash seeds as well as the Bradford Family Watermelon.

Wanted to just throw up a little post to commemorate the occasion of the first sprouts of 2016!

Started all the melons, squash and cukes!
Also, no, I don't plan on planting them all - the sprouts on these are edible!
