For all who's growing something from those $0.20 seeds, please chime in how well are we doing!
Going back to the [url=https://www.helpfulgardener.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32569]original thread[/url], I planted peppers, tomatoes and radishes up to this point. There is one raised bed dedicated specifically to this $2.00 garden (2'x8'):

There are 7 peppers (Jalapeno, Hungarian Wax and Calwonder), 2 tomato plants (Beefsteak and Delicious) so far, planting seeds for basil and cilantro tomorrow...
All has been transplanted last Sat... Hungarian Wax already set it's first fruit:

Same seed packets, radishes are doing very well in 2x3 spaces. Soon to be all picked, and ready for "later planting" of more tomatoes

I have radishes coming up like mad as well.
But in my front garden (flower garden) where I took some of the "salad mix" seed and gave them a toss. OH MY! I have been thinning that out for over a month They are grwoing like crazy I will have good lettuce from there. I still have a forest of lettuce out there from one packet I still need to thin it down another 900%. Pics to follow maybe I'm going to jump in the tub right now.
It's cold out here.
