My wife has all kinds of things sprouting in our little greenhouse in the basement with the fancy grow lights - even those awful things she eats.
We save a lot on money on sets in the spring and give away or sell the excess. Helps pay for our gardening addiction.
Your family and mine would get along well. I am growing everything from seed this year. Well, I did endulge in 4 tomato plants from Lowe's a couple of days ago, but only because they had the normally $3 pint containers for 50 cents each! Since those plants were larger than any that I've got to set out, I thought they would be a good jump start on my tomatoes and I didn't have that variety planted anyway.
I'll have 200 or more tomato plants before it is all said and done this year.
