The seedlings look good, nice job!

Thanks, Marsha! I take the foam trays and egg cartons from my groceries back to Publix. It's my understanding that while other plastics can be broken down and re-formed, polystyrene isn't. Maybe that's wrong. I'm not sure how they recycle it exactly.

High of 81° F today here. I had soil without a seedling in one of the plastic cups, and was able to feel it was quite warm in the sun. Not sure whether it was too warm or not, but the soil in the white foam cups doesn't heat up.
