I was thinking of getting to it today. The instructions on my tomatoes and peppers say 7-8 weeks before planting outdoors. I figure I just may have garden dug up by that time

.
Anyone else start their seeds indoors? Is it too early still? What kind of stuff do you plant? Other than salad, carrots, and beans, what other veggie seeds can be direct sown in the garden? And should I start pumpkin, cantaloupe, and watermelon indoors in case our growing season is short?
