'A' is for Artichoke and Arugula

Started seeds indoors today. Just a couple 'Imperial Star Hybrid'
Artichokes by Burpee. Also Arugula.

I decided to do an 'arugula grow-off' between two seed brands. I have
4 starts of 'Rocket Arugula' by Burpee (2009) and 4 starts of 'Rocket
Arugula' by Kitazawa Seed Co from Oakland, CA (2011). I picked up
these seeds from a shelf of Asian vegetable seeds at Yamagami's in
Cupertino, CA. I liked that they are local and the old fashion
packaging.

I plan to grow all 8 arugula starts in my EarthBox, which I just
filled with dirt and organic fertilizer today.
