Hey just a quick question. How long did it take for the brain strain to sprout? I've had some going for a few days now and they aren't even cracked open yet

Edit: saved your number in my phone. I might make a stop at the nursery soon and check it out. Quite a set up you've got there

And into the new 4" pots where they will stay until spring :) 1/2 Tsp. Osmocote 4 month Vegetable fertilizer in EVERY pot :)
Half way down to prevent spillage if the pots are knocked over by cats or raccoons or random nursery wildlife...lol

Heres the whole 72 cell tray water/liquid fed...we use a 2 phase fertilization here at Baker's Peppers..we use a topdress/capsule extended release(4 month) PLUS a supplemental water soluable Liquid feed fertilizer every 10 days or so :)

Here they are up on the elevated tablesin the shadehouse :) We have enough space on these tables for all 7,000 plants we are doing this winter :) Probably enough space for 10,000 if we wanted to do that many..we just might!!

They took roughly 7 to 8 days to pop the surface :)
 
Nice dale! Looking like things are getting pretty serious over there. I'll be stopping by sometime soon and taking a gander.

So now that all 4 of the 72 cell trays are out of the grow area i can use the other 288 cell tray finally :) I decided to put a little excitement into it :) In this tray we have 3 different seeds....from 3 of my friends :)
