I told myself and many of you that I would not start anything from seed until after my son's cat moves to kitty heaven, because she LOVES killing seedlings. But here I am, starting a grow log. Must have lost my marbles....
This was the sum total of sprouts on 2/19:
I hope you have better eyes than I do, as I can hardly see some of the newest ones.
Today, just four days later:
The newest ones, which were somewhat hidden in the pic above:
The 2 ridiculously tall ones are tomatillos, not peppers.
So far these include Cayenne (3), Congo Trinidad (2), Douglah (6), Jalapeno (3), and Orange Hab (2). I also have a tomatillo and an jalapeño in cups - they germinated in coffee filters, but haven't appeared above the surface since I moved them into the cups. Finally, my real insanity: 27 more seeds which will hopefully germinate this week, in coffee filters.
A note on the pics: when I use flash, the leaves look yellow. When I don't use flash, they look more green, closer to like they are in person. So the middle pic is without flash, the other two with flash. There hasn't been that drastic of a color change in the plants themselves. And no, the cups don't color change, either!
