It’s been a while since I planted from seed. I’ll admit it. Normally I by seedlings from Home Depot. But I wanted to be excessively natural so I ordered seeds from a non-GMO company and started them myself. 11 out of 32 have sprouted. I’m not happy. I planted more than 3 weeks ago. I should have something by now; not just damp dirt. I have been hitting them with the light, warming them up, spraying them. There isn’t much more I can do other than take them to bed with me.
So the almanac said March 11th and 12th were good seed planting days. I did the germinating thing of putting the seeds in wet paper towel and then in a baggie and then on top of the refrigerator.
I also reseeded some of the cups of basil that didn’t come up yet. I have a lot of basil seed to I’m ok with that. What I don’t have a lot of is pepper seeds and tomato seeds. It hurt to use them. These are the expensive rare seeds that took a week to come and have shipping and handling….
I will buy seedlings if I have to……
Peace
