    Balance of WFET's sprouted today

    So out of 12 seeds planted; 3 early sprout (9/23 & 9/24 for other two) 8 sprouted on/about 10/15 1 “dud” Not too bad for a germination rate I guess

    Time to leave the stragglers behind

    Tomato, currant 'Wild Florida Everglades Tomato (WFET)' and Container(s) Various (South Exposure) garden
    Germination rate from the seeds I purchased has been dissappointing (4 of 12). I’ve decided to transplant the four seeds that have germinated to 4" Jiffy-pots and move outside. I sent one of the transplants home with my parents (retired & full time gardeners) who live about 1-1/2 h...

    Radish and Container(s), Northern Exposure garden
    After the panic of “can’t transplant radishes” ….. it seems they are adjusting to the transplant with no ill effects. In the process of acclimating them to outdoor life, a couple of hours at a time each day

    Stanley gets a pedicure

    Cucumber 'Burpless' a.k.a. Stanley, the crack-cucumber and Container(s), Western Exposure garden
