Remember me talking (cryin) about how my mini vacation resulted in some of my seedlings (cat and no water) getting ruined? Well, this past Sunday night, I restarted some of the seeds I lost. Brandywine tomatoes, zucchini, spaghetti squash, cherry tomatoes and butternut squash. I intended to replace the sweet and hot peppers but I ran out of peat pellets. All these seeds take between 7 and 14 days to sprout and all have sprouted in just 4 days in the ziploc baggies. This is with 2 overcast (cold and rainy) days. I so love the baggie method! So, with the first day of spring upon us, I'm only behind a couple of weeks now. I hope to find my way to the farm store tomorrow to pick up some peat pellets and finish up my restart.

Yea! This year a lot of our seeds have sprouted way early. Last year I couldn't get peppers to grow for love nor money and this year we've had a 98% germination rate :o)
ReplyDeleteI also started TRUE potato seed and today several of them are up! I'm so excited to give them a try, for "first year" potato seed.
The only seed not performing so well is Roma tomato seed and I'm going to replant them tomorrow.
Blessings,

I am sooo behind on seed starting! I did however get part of the garden cleared. I've been so off since Bill and I split up and my heart has not been in it. Im glad to see all those seedlings!
