Stuff is actually growing!

I did enough reading on how to start plants from seeds that I was pretty confident I'd get decent results but it's quite a relief to actually see everything growing! The only real issue I ran into overall was that my plant markers weren't as "permanent" as the pen suggested so after setting up the garden for the spring crops it promptly rained and washed off the ink from all the markers. I took my best guess at what I had planted where but I might be surprised down the road when my kohlrabi turns out to be cabbage!

Here's some pictures of what I've got growing.

Transplants
I started all of these from seed in the basement, got them hardened off fine and planted in the garden or pots. Some of them have a little frost damage as we've had unseasonably cool weather this spring.
Cabbage
Broccoli Raab
Broccoli
Cairo Cabbage
Bulgarian Carrot Pepper
Kung Pow Pepper
Redskin Pepper


Directly Sowed
I started these directly outside in the garden.
Mesclin Mix
Kohlrabi
Cairo Cabbage
Snap Peas
Spinach
Turnip
Radish
