At the suggestion of Judy who blogs at Grandparentsplus2, I snagged one of those extra foil space blankets that I had in an old hunting pouch and re-purposed it for my seed starting rack. Now I am not sure that I will ever be able to get this thing back in it’s tiny pouch after this but we will see if this helps reflect more light onto the seedlings.
Below the Peas are starting to get tall.
The onions are starting to get bigger, and I must admit I sprinkled the rest of the seed packet into the peat pots in hopes of increasing my onion density.
The Cilantro has started to poke out of the pots.
Below the Pansy’s have sprouted.
Below in the orange tray the Black Eyed Susan’s have sprouted as well as some Lupine and Echinacea seedlings.
I have held off a little on starting more plants until we see if winter is almost down. Despite a warm up this week we still have a deep snow pack and tall snow banks here. Depending how this weekends boiling goes, I may start some more plants with the kids, but we will have to wait and see…
