Lots of Seedlings

Hi, all, things are busy as they usually are in the spring.... just so thankful that I get to play in the dirt every day! I have loads of seedlings coming up.... arugula, kale, collard, chard..... all kinds of herbs... even a few new varieties I haven't tried before. I love a challenge, and like to try new seeds every year. I am trying to grow valerian, I have grown it before but it's been years ago. Growing from seed is generally easy, but some things are challenging! Ok, got tomatoes and peppers in the ground.... got some eggplant going. I have tomatillos, and local peeps if you want some just give me an email and let me know! I don't charge much..... :) All my plant money is going toward a greenhouse we are going to construct this summer. I already have 20 old windows, and just have to figure out where to put the structure. Might have to clear out some briars first! The blackberries are taking over.... but they are so good, it's hard to whack 'em back! Anybody else make a greenhouse using old windows? Did you design your own? or get a plan? I think we are going to "design our own" as we go.... I know I have seen all variety of materials used, including cinderblock which are cheap....we plan on a "dirt" floor at first. Any helpful tips from people would be appreciated much! I'm through rambling for the day.....take care and enjoy your spring!
