Later in a week I'll do second planting with cabbages and some more greens like Mizuna, Culantro, Fenel and some others. Most of salads will be planted direct in the garden in March so not going to do seedlings for them.
I did start few early tomatoes to use in pots - Black Cherry, Yellow Pear, Azoychka, Black Brandywine, Red Zebra and Black Krim. Also peppers to start early:
| Jimmy Nardello's Pepper - 2 plants |
| Pepper - Trinidad Perfume sweet pepper (Capsicum chinense) (from Dave) |
| Pepper - Aji Angelo hot pepper (C. baccatum) (from Dave) |
| Pepper - Aji Dulce #2 hot pepper (C. chinense) (from Dave) |
Most peppers and tomatoes will be planted in March but I wanted to have few in pots for earlier fruiting. Will see how that works out.
