Wow, that’s a lot! We have managed to plant pretty much everything we are going to plant and none of the seedlings are ready for transplant. We are going to harvest some fresh basil to make homemade pizza tonight.

I’m still on the fence about the diva cup… let me know how it goes.

Thanks Lisa! I’m using what I think are standard 4gal buckets, but after I try the rubber mallet in a warm room method, if that doesn’t work I’ll just conclude these are just not a match, and go in search of different buckets. Oddly, I bought both the buckets and the lids from the same food and supply place (azurestandard), I’m pretty sure! Oh well, I’ll figure it out and report back. Thanks again!

Sue, I got one bucket from a bakery that has a slightly smaller mouth than the others. The Gamma Seal didn’t fit, so we used it for cat litter with its regular lid. I think beans will be fine without the Gamma Seal, too.

Saw your comment on Sharon’s blog and thought I’d respond…
