| Did a spaceship land in my kitchen? |
Since it's my first year, I don't have a greenhouse to start my seeds in. Actually I don't have much of anything at all, so I improvise. Right now all the trays of herbs- and flowers-to-be are living in out kitchen, formerly home to a table.

| Who needs a kitchen table anyway? |
I scavenged a metal rack from out basement (formerly home to
some organization), and hung florescent lights from the shelves. Everything is wrapped up snugly with a couple hypothermia blankets and tin foil to reflect light and keep them warm overnight.
Things are going surprisingly well so far, although it's taking a lot of effort to keep the humidity high enough, but prevent mold from growing on the soil surface. I have been waking up at night and running downstairs to check on things. Still, there have been
signs of life. In between late night visits, I dream of having my own greenhouse one day.
Which I would also wake up to check on.
