Knowing what to plant and whether to start the seeds indoors or direct sow in the garden can sometimes be a challenge. In looking for some charts to help develop my seed starting skills, I ran across this link and thought many would find it beneficial.
If you scroll down a bit and utilize the link on the page, they even have charts for each month of the year.

Looks like I am going to be busy, although starting seeds now is always such a joy! What a nice reminder that spring is just around the corner. I don't know about you, but for me, gardening tends to be much more fun when it is warm!

How would anyone feel about growing certain cultivars specifically to save seed and then setting up a system where we could actually collect and grow our own plants or have a seed exchange among the garden? Could be a fun party! Planting or swapping!
Thoughts and opinions?

It looks like I'm right on target of when to start the herbs for the pollinator beds. Though I wouldn't have thought it was really warm enough to put out dill or parsley seeds in the bare ground. I may just start them inside any way.
Denise, mike and I would like to participate in a plant/ seed swap
Awesome! I have your names down. I haven't done this before, but have been doing some reading and realize you can practically garden for free. Music to my ears. Do you have the ability to start some seeds or are plants a more viable option for you?
