Getting A Head-Start

My son, Bryce, bought a wooden newspaper pot-maker (found in many of the gardening catalogs). The paper pots are really easy to make and, as a bonus, recycle newspapers. Bryce is a busy guy, so he uses TV time to make the pots.

Then he fills them with plant starter mix, and adds a seed or two. He has a huge collection of vegetable, herb, and flower seeds, so this is a good way to use them. His personal garden is fairly small--he still has young children that need a backyard to play in! In this last picture, the plant grouping to the right holds his experiments in rooting cuttings from his yard. He hopes to sell many of these vegetable, herb, and plant starts.
