The garden has been started!

This year, I’m starting a lot of my garden from seed. The first thing to be planted was my onions.

Yeah, not much to look at yet! I planted 144 seeds. This variety is called “Copra” and it’s supposed to be a good storage onion. I didn’t have much luck storing my onions last year – it was really wet towards the end of the season, plus I don’t know what variety they were other than “yellow.” :) I’m hoping these will work out better!

I’ve never grown onions from seed before. My dad has always used sets (and that’s what I used last year). So this is a huge experiment all the way around!

A few of the seeds have already sprouted (2/10/2010 – 3 days after planting)! Tiny little white sprouts.
