Consequences of still going hard, but not being able to install a greenhouse this year. These have taken over two 3x3 grow tents and then some.
There’s more germing on some heat mats too!
These are a collection of flowers; marigolds, aster, lupins, nasturtiums, straw flower, corn flower, decorative grass.
There is also for veggies; peppers (9 types), tomatoes (9 types), onions and leeks.
On the heatmat, there’s the 4-6 week starts, so cucumber, melons, more flowers and some cucamelon.
My problem is that I never have it in me to thin seedlings aggressively, so depending on the plant, I might end up with a few seedlings in a single cell. For example, I planted 12 cells of a particular variety of pepper, and I ended up with 23 sprouts. Rather than kill them, i separated them into new cells, and now i have 23 plants. As I prune things like tomatoes, I stick cuttings into water, so those are multiplying, too.
That’s what I’m wondering about on a bunch. I know the peppers and tomatoes have to be thinned down to one a cup, they’ll compete with each other for nutrients, light, and space other wise.
The flowers I have no clue, so experimenting with a few different densities in some cups. Ornamental stuff isn’t AS important, but if you want some large blooms, you gotta let it thrive.
