Preparing to plant from Kady Maser

Make a list of all that you want to grow, be it new varieties, or ones you’ve grown before. If you’re newer to gardening, you may want to check that list and see if you have room for everything you want. If you’re anything like me, you may have gone overboard with the seed buying sprees. (Did I really need ten different varieties of melons, or seven different varieties of cucumbers, and six different kinds of squash? All at once, and then some more, because, apparently, why not?) I recommend choosing two or three different kinds of each plant, then sticking with that, no matter what. (Don’t be like me, and go back to buy more seeds…and then some more…oh, and maybe one or five more…because…REASONS.) Then, after figuring out what you will grow and buying those seeds, you need to gather some more tools. You’ll need containers, seed-starting mix, and preferably a heating mat or grow lights to help your seeds grow more quickly
