Title: First seeds on the way!
Post by: freefolk on February 11, 2018, 11:56

I planted our first seeds on Monday 5th Feb, 4 coir pots each with 2 summer cabbage seeds in.  They are on a small bench in the spare bedroom.  As of this morning 7 of the 8 seeds are up and running!  I will thin to the strongest plant in due course, and will plant some more at 2 weeks intervals for the next 3 weeks.  Happy days!;););)

There's nothing like seeing seeds germinate. Just prop some tin foil behind them to reflect the light from the window so they won't get leggy.
