Well, we've done some potting up and put them into the 60 degree F room. They seem to love it and are looking very good to me.
The last picture is the leftovers at this point. I'll probably pot them up for give aways to the those who always come looking for freebies. Until then, they are officially my backups in case something goes wrong with the ones currently assigned to the main event. Enjoy.

Really good looking babies, Ted! (Similar to mine, haha!) That was already a lot of work and much more ahead of you when it comes to the final transplant - good luck!

Their looking great Ted. I think you could fit another 100 plants in that window.

Ahhhhhhh babies! Lots and lots of lovely babies! Your plants look great. : )
Hopefully it won't be too much longer and they can all go outside. Hope you have a productive year. |

Oh, nice , Ted. I just love it at that stage when they are all so beautiful and healthy. At that stage I am usually dreaming of all I am going to get, and the plants to share at my swap. So full of hope and potential.
Mine are winding down as our heat snd humidity pick up, so I will be living vicariously. |

Thanks, they are just so pretty this year, that I had to share. I have renamed my "Green Room" to "Cold Treatment Room". I am totally convinced that putting the little guys in 55F to 60F cold treatment just after pot up is making for better plants. And, yes, I do feed them 1/16th strength MG for tomatoes in their watering from the time they shed their seed casings (helmets). Don't know if the feeding actually helps, but I can see that it definitely doesn't hurt.
In the picture below, you can see three pots with lots of seedlings. Both of those were planted with seeds that I received in 2008 (were from previous years) and you're looking at 90+ percent germination. These two "meat trays" are sitting on a "human" heating pad set to low. 95% of all the seedlings in the last picture up in post #1 will be given away in the next 4 to 6 weeks. But, until my garden starts getting filled up, they are my backups and will remain here with me.

Plants looking happy Ted. Cold treatment room seems to be a clean, well lighted space (as I began to type it Papa H came in forced me to use those words, and of course take a swig from the flask).
Looking forward to progression. |

I spent the afternoon using my Yard Machine Tiller on the garden. I really didn't realize how much of my energy the Lymphoma trip had taken out of me. But now I have a new perspective on that issue. That said, I have a plan that will still get me to where I want to go with the main garden.
I just have to take it a little at a time and be patient with the process. It's a case of "I can do it. I just can't do it as fast". We'll keep posting progress. I'll be putting in the cabbages in a day or two. Thanks for the kind words, y'all. Take care
