More seeds have gone into pots today; the barn cats are enjoying the marginally nicer weather and have been bouncing about quite happily. Peter spent a bit of time out of doors with them today and there was great friendliness and happiness on display.

Peter and Omaha have been a bit competitive and territorial for lap and cuddle time, but both seem to have found a compromise of pinning a farmer down at night, two on one. No further health issues have been found.

Today's seeds which have been planted are as follows:

Italian sweet basil
Black Krim tomatoes
Hungarian yellow wax sweet peppers
Peppermint
Cilantro
Summer savory
Dwarf Greek basil
Sweet marjoram
Green sage
Italian oregano
Garlic chives
Curly parsley
Market Miracle tomatoes
Blue curled kale
Cushaw green striped winter squash
Mortgage Lifter tomatoes
Moon & Stars watermelon
Cherokee Purple tomatoes
Amish paste tomatoes
White Wonder tomatoes
Green Zebra tomatoes
Yellow Pear tomatoes
Red Pear tomatoes
Green Grape tomatoes
Piri piri peppers
Brandywine tomatoes

One way or another we will have plenty of vegetables! The already planted stuff is already at the point where it's going to need to be thinned for the health of the plants. Once thinned we'll give it a week or two and then consider transplanting to larger pots and eventually begin the hardening off.
