The First Flowers

We had our first flower seeds germinate last night, and they are the Bachelor Buttons that Aiden planted! Just about all of them came up yesterday which means if you ever plant bachelor buttons from seed you can pretty much guarantee 4 days until they germinate! Thats about the same amount of time it takes for tomato seeds to germinate as well. We had 2 tomato seeds germinate yesterday out of ten that we replanted as well.

Here are Aidens Bachelor Buttons, and I know its just a matter of time before I hear "When are my Sweet Pea's going to grow Dad?!?"

 

The Half Acre Farm has been pretty dull this week, not a lot going on. Its still a little too early to get seeds planted out in the garden. I am thinking I might plant my peas in the garden this weekend, but we'll see how the weather fairs. There are still no potato sprouts, but the onions seem to be doing really well so far. The sprouts are starting to get tall, and there seems to be more sprouts every day when I go check on them. I hope everyone enjoys their good Friday tomorrow, and if there is nothing new to report tomorrow I want to wish everyone a Happy Easter!
