I Have Soil!

I've bought a 25 quart bag of Miracle Grow's potting soil. I've been thinking of just where to borrow/harvest some dirt around town for no cost, but maybe thats another project for another entry where the topic of soil type and quality could be delved into.

We've also had our Fantasy Baseball league's draft this past Sunday. I first joined this league in the spring of 2015. That year, we used the systerm at ESPN's website. In 2016, we tried Yahoo.com's. This year we're back to ESPN.

sizing up our gardening options

Son brought home a cabbage plant from school. pretty small right now, just a few leaves. ~ 6 in. high. I've got it in a clear plastic fast-food type solo cup. need to buy a bag of potting soil. been saving most of the plastic 2 liters and milk jugs in a large trashbag after rinsing since Nashville doesn't have a established city-wide recycling service.


our library system also has a seed library program.


figuring out how to do this in our covered, very shady patio.
