Small seeds.

Leroy · March 20, 2008

My first round of seedlings are all still alive.

When I got my second batch they were smaller seeds. I just thought that it was because they were different kinds. They started to sprout on day 7. The first one I pulled. I thought it was grass.

That is a normal tooth pick in the picture. Are they small or is it just in my mind?
If they are small will they catch up?

Another question. I don't have a seed starting mat. So I put the seeds in the oven with the door a tiny bit open and the pilot light keeps it 85% in there. Will the gas hurt the sprouts? I only leave them in there during the night and put them under the shop light during the day.

The second picks are my first seedlings. They are not that colour. I just am having a bit of trouble with my camera. Too many buttons and knobs.

I am so excited that I already went out and looked for blossom bags. All they had at the hobby shop were wedding things. Then I went and found a remnant of something nylon with smallish holes.

I am so excited I can not wait. It is still a month till they can go in the ground.

Thanks.
