The circle of life 2012 has begun again for me . Have got some Bombay morich & Dorset naga seedlings at 1 day old . Used a old method of germination using weak tea solution and it worked fantastically ... From soaking to seedling break through in 6 days is pretty impressive I think . Seeds kindly donated from PIC 1 .... Will try and sort out uploading some pictures later . Used a mixture of John innes seeding compost, then mixed some vermiculite into it ...placed in a polystyrene coffee cup ...placed in the seeds and put it into a heated propagator .
 
Yo ......Ho... Ho.....and a bottle of Rum,...What's up Jason!,

Nice job with the germination!..............seeds galore.

How did you do with the light set-up?

Hey Greg ....I rigged up a temporary reflector light system with some 60watt cool light energy saving bulbs until I manage to sort out a proper set up ..... They seem to love it so far lol ...and u guessed it mate ...the rum is out !
 
Well next project at work is converting a old ceiling flourescent light into a grow light . Has 4 T8 daylight white tubes already installed ...going to chop light in half so has 2 tubes only ( 16 watt tubes ) . Then have to figure out method of hanging it so it's not to big and bulky in my spare bedroom ( which is a suntrap ! ) . Hope it works .
 
well guys just a few more pics of the seedlings after a week under a grow light :)

I see things are progressing nicely in your growing set up.
The seedlings have really grown since your first pics. Also liked
the tea soak thing. If I don't have a senior moment I'll try that
next time I start seeds ; )
 
looking real nice rude keep up the good work and let me know how or babies are making out

thanks your friend Joe
 
Hey Jason,
You sure have plenty of plants .Are they going into containers or the "Brit" soil? Which one is growing the strongest?

How was the gold rum?
