Seeds vs. Transplants

This week I started my vegetable garden by planting some seeds and transplants in my beds. Before I get to which plants I added, I want to discuss the pros and cons of seeding and direct sowing. The table below shows some advantages and disadvantages to each method.


In my garden this week, I used transplants for my tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. I also planted seeds for my beans, carrots, squash, and zucchini. There will be more to come next week!

Check out the pictures below of my (very premature) garden.
