More sproutlings have appeared: Update on March 4th sowing and petunias

Spring is springing inside, despite the -20 degrees outside!  Here they are, under my brand new T5 full spectrum lights from Lee Valley.  Raised the lights up for photo-taking purposes -- will keep them nice and low.

March 11th status of March 4th sowing


Update on March 4th sowing:
  • Brussels sprouts:  3 of 3 pots have sprouted, both seeds in each as noted a few days ago.  (wow, 100% germination rate!  A+ for Brussels sprouts!)

  • Cabbage:  2 of 4 pots have sprouted, but only 1 seed in each (planted 2 each).  (seen in upper left of above photo)


  • Onion:  1 of 1 pot has sprouted, 4 seeds (planted 4 or 6, can't remember).

  • Kale:  1 of 1 pot hasn't sprouted yet.


  • Petunias, sown on February 18th, are looking good. Thinned them to 1 per pot.
