Tea bag, that is.
Four days ago I stuck one bean in a used black tea bag, and planted another in a green tea bag the following day. As of this morning, the first one doesn't appear to be doing anything, but the later one has already busted free of the casing - green tea for the win! I just moved that one to a small pot and I'm hopeful that I'll see a spot of green poking up from the dirt in a few days.

It's about time that I see some amount of success with these stupid bush beans. I lost a few that I planted in little pots that never germinated, and a couple more in the paper towel that sprouted but got mold, but I have two coming up nicely in pots now, and I'm hopeful for the one I planted yesterday that did well in the paper towel.

We're expecting a storm to blow in soon, so none of us will enjoy Vitamin D therapy outside today. I did get a nice walk in the sunshine yesterday, but I guess it'll be the treadmill in the gloomy garage today. It's also time to start looking for bigger containers for my little garden.

Storm? I don't know in which state you live, but we had a big one the last few days. Definitely no garden weather here. My spring flowers look sad today.
