Tomato trays and the accidentally sprouted Yam (sweet potato)

in the top left corner that is a whole tray of romas...i had no idea i planted too many. i never thought so many would actually sprout!

tomato seedlings soaking up the light
the lights and the reflective foil. the foil seems to work about as well as the white paint on the wall...

i am -so- out of table space...time to figure out how big the garden plots are going to be
oh so many little plants...they sure put alot of oxygen into the air!
...must find homes for the extra plants....thankfully people like plants...
