Asparagus repotted into soil
14(!) asparagus sproutlings repotted into their own soil tubs. That's 14/16 seeds that sprouted, assuming the other two don't pop up in the coming days. Pretty darn good!

Asparagus has appeared!
Yay! Both asparagus tubs each have 2 sproutlings discovered today. Removed them from the heat mat and put them under lights. Will wait a little longer before repotting; hopefully the other sproutlings will follow shortly.

Celery sowed
Sowed celery by sprinkling the tiny seeds in a vermiculite tub. They'll benefit from the new heated seed mat from the get-go.
Heated seed-starting mat
Bought a heated seed-starting mat today. Hoping this will help the asparaguys get going, no sign of them yet. Has been on for a few hours and the tubs seem nice and toasty now.

Asparagus seeds started
First indoor sowing (begonias don't count)!
I miss having asparagus in my garden. So, sowed 2 x 8 seeds, in vermiculite tubs the old fashioned way. Put them in clear salad "mini greenhouses". Now the longgggggggg wait to first harvest begins. Seed was free from Telsing.
