Greenhouse

[Black Bart]

On top of fridge? Normally I have thinbgs sprouting in my fridge. 

That's a pretty good idea, Bart. The warmth probably helps. Do you put a grow light up there, too?

I remembers me student days when opening the fridge was as scary as the shower scene from Psycho.

VWEEP! VWEEP! VWEEP! VWEEP!

Yo! I've started a buncha seeds on my windowsill greenhouse.

Please do - My seedlings are already getting too leggy, but I couldn't wait!

It's tough to know when I can plant....

I had very good results preventing leggy sprouts and damp off by opening the tent a bit to a allow a gentle breeze to get at the tray by means of wee  fan which was set on low plugged into a timer ( it doesn't have to be on 24/7) .

Good idea, Bro.  Legginess is generally caused by too little light. I hear you can rig up mirrors and tin foil around your windowsill to reflect more sunlight in. I also use a fluoresecent light on a timer set for 8 hours on each day.

I've been hitting them with a grow-lamp at night to hold them back. It's working OK for the morning glories....

I think I'm going to pot up some of my climbers indoors soon, with a support, then move the whole shwack out later.  The other pots are too large, but I think I can start one (I will be using it as a second tier for a larger pot later).

That sounds good.

I gots peas and sacred tobacco sprouts!!!!!

I still haven't started anything , the ground is still frozen solid and the snow is two feet deep in the garden .I figure i have to another three weeks to start seedlings for early May planting .

[Opsa]

You may want to start them now, BC, depending on what they are.

I have a pole bean sprouted now, plus Miribilis, Nicotania Alata, Zinnia and Mullein. No peppers, tomatoes, carrots or onions yet.

The pea sprouts got so tall I re-potted them and moved them out to the porch mini-greenhouse to start hardening off.

Outside, my radishes, lettuce and spinach sprouted on Sunday!
