It Begins

My Seeds finally arived!!!

I couldn't wait to get them started! so I thought id do a progression on bringing them into the world

The seeds themselves arent very big, around half the size of a corn kernal. A beautiful dark grey with black spot on the tip.

So to kick them off, what better then a glass of hot water to give them a good soaking before I plant them.

Thats all ive done so far and I keep looking at them with a smile on my face i'll plant them tomorrow and then... waiting... and then after that anouce my success or complain about my failure. Either way im sure you'll be hearing from me.

Cheers,
Isty.
