Last year I decided to try starting my vegetable and flower garden from seeds " before " our actual growing season. Because I am also into being green and reusing items, I was able to borrow/salvage a #20 gallon fish tank and use it to start all kinds of good eats.  Below are pictures of our aquarium nursery. So far this growing season we have Leeks which we started two weeks ago, and Celery which we started 5 days ago. Since March has finally arrived we will be adding imensely to our in-door veggie tank patch. Make sure to visit again soon to see a list of vegetables and flowers we are adding this year.

Today is the day we start some seedlings. First order of business are the leeks and celery. While researching seed starting last year we found a neat aquarium method that worked pretty flawlessly. Pictures showing exactly how to start your own seeds on a budget and without a lot of mess or fuss will be posted ASAP. First we have to get these seeds going so we'll get back to you in a little bit.
