Comments on: Transplanting and Weeding in my garden http://www.themarthablog.com/2009/05/transplanting-and-weeding-in-my-garden.html It's a blog about Martha Stewart and her daily adventures.

There was one that was a large flat tray with a grid insert (similar to the old aluminum ice trays) in which you just added potting soil. The grid was slightly flexible so that you could compact each compartment slightly before you added your seeds. Once the seeds were added and sprouted the roots spread to hold the soil "ball" in place before planting. What is the name of this type of seed starter and where can they be located? I thought it was a great idea! Thanks Much! Hello Martha,

The garden looks beautiful, but again weeds are a menace. Enjoying your blog. Hi Martha

If you have, did you observe slow germination and/or growth compared to seedlings started in plastic pots? I have just uploaded a posting about this in my blog (you can find it at http://burkegarden.blogspot.com/2009/05/questioning-peat-pots.html). If you have sources about these, I would be grateful if you could advise me. Thank you and have a great day! Martha,

I can only imagine how many weeds they have to deal with. My small property, only 1/3 of an acre, has what seems like tons of weeds. I can only imagine how many you have. I try to be organic and either dig them up or pick the blossoms daily, especially with dandelions. We've had a great deal of rain lately and the grass and weeds are very lush and prolific. I can't wait for the warm weather to come with less rain and wind. We are supposed to get snow in the Cascades again and it is rather chilly down here at sea level, too. Thanks again for sharing. I love your farm! Jan Hi Martha, Your garden crew sure does do a fantastic job of weeding and transplanting. I can only imagine how many weeds they have to deal with.

I don't think I can find it in my heart to gripe about it, considering the severe drought we've been suffering the past 3-4 years! I love the Ligularia that's being transplanted to a new home. It looks like it will be quite happy amongst the hosta, ferns and such. Also, enjoyed seeing the dainty mossy saxifrage. It's a new plant to me, also love companula! So pretty. Looks like it will be a "fairy land" garden when it's done. Not that a garden is ever done, is it? I've got several large shrubs that have to be moved, ugh, not sure if I've got the back muscles for the job. Maybe soon. Love your garden. Thanks! Hi Martha, It's been raining lots here as well.

If you don't like where its planted, you simply have your garden staff dig it up and transplant it! No, that's the joy of being Martha Stewart!
