Like I Need Any More Seeds, Soil Test, and A Greenhouse

28*, feels like 20*, 63% humidity, SSE 8 mph wind, cloudy, FLOOD WARNING

(OK, the blogger isn't working right now, so no pictures)

I went out to buy some dog food this morning and to look for some more hot pepper seeds. Mr. Hyper requested Scotch Bonnets and I was for sure I could find them or a similar type at one of the stores around here. Nada. I found zilch in the hot pepper seeds except for jalapenos which i don't need. However, several seed packets cried out for attention and I KNOW I should of ignored them, but Showy Evening Pink Primrose (Oenothera speciosa), Blue Bellflower, and mixed varieties Cactus hopped into my cart along with a little soil test kit as I'd like to test my veggie garden and blueberry patch. It looks easy enough. Then I stumbled over something that I could really use both indoors and out. I mini green house. It comes in a big box, which I need to put together. Inside, I can use it to keep the critters from eating my houseplants, in the best window of the house (the cat playground window) and not have to fear them getting into my plants. Outside, when the time comes, I can use it to harden off my seedlings as its very windy here and seedlings have a tough time getting used to being outside.

2 seeds of thought:

Hubby bought me one of those mini greenhouses this year and I'm loving it so far! Congrats!

Blogger has been finicky lately. Slow to load photos, lots of the dread BX-xxx unable to complete request action when posting comments or replies and slow to bring up pages. I wonder if their servers need to be upgraded or increased?
