part of gardening. Strangely, I even enjoy it more than picking the vegetables and fruits that I grow. It is just such a miracle to watch the tiny sprout rise above the ground. You never know what will happen. Sometimes my seeds do nothing. Sometimes, they sprout long after I planted them. I love the surprises of that early stage in gardening.

By the way, your videos on planting seedlings have been very helpful to me.
