Back on the Farm

Newly planted trays of seed cells are nestled next to the studio radiator, Scotch Bonnets, Joe Parkers for stuffing, yellow Marconis and Sante Fe Grandes. I also have a tray of varigated Jalepenos from seeds sent by a school chum. After I asked his advice about liming the soil, my friend the indoor landscaper recommended bone meal. "Everyone says so." He told me. "So how come I never heard it before?" I asked.
