Default Over Thinking It - The Common Gardener

Was at moms, helping her with spring cleanup in the yard.

Kinda interesting how us *enthusiast* gardens vs. just a gardener. How many people who plant tomatoes are on a tomato forum

Anyhow, it's sorta interesting to compare. I run soil less mix to germinate, lights, liquid starter ferts, grow fert, the list goes on.

Mom, she just takes some seeds - she might start them on a wet paper towel ontop of the boiler. Or just by the window. Then she plants them outside. She's getting older so she's cut back on how many, but she would just do a milk jug greenhouse and start them outside, Water it and that's it. Nowadays, she's skipping the milk jugs altogether - bones, arthritis, too much work. She let mothers nature decide who survives and who doesn't

Just saying....maybe we're overthinking it.
