Well, who isn't? I've got the planting jones... I too have been holding
myself back but am not going to make it much longer. Last weekend I built
a light tower that is huge. It's big enough to put in16 flats. George,
I'm going to start a few of all the chili seeds you sent me. I also have
Dowdeswell Delphinium seeds coming.
