A new planting flat and some hopeful-looking tomato sprouts

I bought this little seed starter flat for $9.99 at Sunset Nursery. I could have used a mishmash of egg cartons, but I decided to splurge so that I can easily move the whole mess into the sun throughout the day if I feel like it. It's got a nice plastic top to create a little greenhouse. I planted Dr. Wyche's Yellow Tomato, Black Sea Man Tomato, Hartmann's Yellow Gooseberry Tomato, Black Plum Tomato, Wisconsin Lakes Bell Pepper, Joe's Long Cayenne Pepper, and Green Husk Tomatillos.  I actually used a soil-building compost to instead of potting soil just because that's what I have.  I'll see how this works.

The Dr. Wyche's Yellow and Black Plum Tomatoes that I planted last Saturday have started to sprout.

In the garden, I'm still waiting on the Danver Carrots, but I re-read the package and it says that germination is slow and erratic, so be patient.  So I'm being patient.  I think I saw a little fennel sprout in the fennel patch.
