Moment #3: Arrival
 |
| Waiting... |
This moment started a week or so ago. I have been eagerly planning my Spring garden for months. Months I tell you. I started devouring gardening books in October and reading all I could on what to plant for the upcoming season. And it is here!!!
Typically, I buy transplants and just put them directly into the ground or pots. It feels safe planting something in my garden that has already begun. Seeds are a different matter entirely. There is no guarantee they will amount to anything and that scares me. This year, I decided to try and sprout my own seeds and see what happened. This has been a year of throwing off all that binds and moving forward in spite of the fear, not matter how big or small the fear may be.
Nature has a way of knowing exactly what it needs to survive. My role in this is to use good soil and water attentively. Seriously, people have been planting seeds for thousands of years. I do not know why I was afraid of seeds. I suppose it was the uncertainty of them.
Anyway.
I planted. I waited. And this happened:
 |
| Zucchini |
And this...
 |
| More Zucchini |
And this...
 |
| Even more Zucchini, Kitchen Beans, and Cucumbers |
I have a few more weeks of waiting before I transfer the seedlings into my garden. I'm pretty excited about that.
