Getting Started on My 2007 Garden!

I am so excited about spring and my garden!! I have some newspaper pots done and sowed some spinach seeds. I am going to do 2 crops of spinach this year, one in the spring and one in the fall. Last year I waited till summer to plant and a lot of my spinach bolted to seed because of the heat. We still had quite a bit and I was able to freeze bags of it, which was nice during that scare last year. We eat spinach at least twice a week so I would like to grow enough to freeze at least that, plus what we will eat during the growing season. That's a lot of spinach! I will devote at least half of my garden to spinach during the spring and most if not all of my balcony pots.

Here is what I have planted so far:

It's still cold out and neither my front or back porch is heated, so these will stay on the window seat in my dining room for now.

That is amazing. I tried indoor gardening once (the only option for a small apartment dweller). I killed everything. I think I overwatered it all. I so envy your skill with plants.
