Goodness!! It's spring break and appropriately spring-y. I went to Metropolis (the official home of Superman) and I have begun planting seeds and prepping soil. I wish I had more food-waste for my compost bin. The current volume is rather sad and it is having trouble heating up and breaking down. Then again, I did start it in the middle of winter so it should start picking up with the warmer weather. I am noticing some of the mold actually breaking down. The slug population has also slightly decreased.
Over the last few days, I filled my peat-based-seeding-pots with seeding mix (deliciously organic), impregnated it with seeds, found a growing onion piece in my fridge, put some garlic into the ground, put the growing piece of onion into a pot, put an onion in the ground, and I went to Metropolis (the official home of Superman).
Metropolis was crazy sucky but there are plenty of pictures on facebook in a brand-new album. Took a number of dirt roads and wrong forks to get there. I was kind of worried about being shot and eaten by some hick. Needless to say, we took the highway home, made it in no time.
Photos of the current planting and maybe some metropolis high-points to come.
