Seed Sowing Saturday Quatre
We were blessed yesterday and today with warmer weather and beautiful sunshine. I repotted the seedlings in the mini-cells to 6 pack cells and the 6 pack seedlings went into 4 inch pots and the tomatoes in the 4 inch pots went into 6 inch pots. I did plant out 4 cabbages, 4 broccoli, 4 cauliflower and 4 Brussels sprouts...they will most likely be the last until the Fall. I planted two borage plants in the herb bed...I transplanted them from my plot in the Community Garden. I have a two packets of peas soaking to be planted tomorrow a.m. I don't normally plant peas, my husband is a commercial grower and I have plenty in the Fall...but nothing is better than snacking on them fresh from the vine.
I have peat pots soaking and tomorrow I'll plant more peppers, tomatoes and herbs. I took a couple photos of the sweet potato slips and one of the the potatoes I slipped last week. The roots are fantastic...just hope the soil warms soon so they can be planted. 
What did you sow this SEED SOWING SATURDAY?

Wow! Your plants look great. It's amazing to see all that you have growing!!
I will cross my fingers that your soil temps cooperate with you and your potatoes.
your plants are pretty.I repotted most of mine last week but still have some to do. Blessings jane
Hallo! I stuck in some purple sprouting broccoli seeds and peas in this weekend! I can see the cabbage moth butterflies all ready to pounce as soon as the brassicas sprout!
Gosh, I didn't even know about Seed Sowing Saturday! Thanks for the link though, this is a new site for me and looks like a good one. I did try to plant some of my asparagus roots, but the garden is still too muddy. I planted Roma seeds earlier in the week; maybe I should have waited until Saturday, LOL.
Your sweet potatoes look fantastic! Mine are ready for the sprouts to be rooted. Some of them anyway.
It sounds like you're doing the seedling shuffle!! Your plants are looking great!
I have never planted sweet potatoes...maybe next year.
Great seedlings/plants! I love the pictures of your sweet potatoes rooting!
I did actually plant some basil and gourd seeds yesterday! Yay!
Wow! Your plants are looking really good!
I lost your email (or did you give it to me?) Anyways, I wanted to tell you that we will be having some more baby goats if you are still interested... let me know... smwon1@gmail.com
Nothing I love better than eating peas right off the vine...no cooking necessary! My SP's have been in water for a week now but nothing's happening yet. My tomatoes decided today was the day to POP. Yeah me!
All this planting going on just makes me smile. No planting here,, too cold and it snowed lightly today..
The only seeds planted here is the seeds of talking with people about God.
Have a tiggeriffic day~! ta ta for now from Iowa:)
I ordered sweet potato slips, I could see I got mine started way to late and would not have slips in time to plant. April is when I plant here. I ordered three different kinds to try.
I am going to try some more peppers seeds too, Since I have the shade cloths to go over the hoops on my rows I think, I hope I can garden through the summer without stuff burning to a crisp. We will find out! My herbs didn't do to good I had planted the seeds. I may direct plant those I am thinking. I did that last year and they did pretty well doing it that way.
Looking great Lynda! And congrats on your new great grandbaby! I've got those slips started, just have to wait and see now.
