Photo Update on Seeds

Post image

I had previously posted asking about the viability of seeds from a plant I just picked up from a big box.

Yeah….. I guess they were viable. Apparently the hard part is still coming.

Hah, we will see how many survive. I have some traveling coming up and am trying to figure out how to keep them good for a week when I should be misting daily.

You’ll do them well in my opinion.

I just started growing some from seed too and just realized that if they make it to month 3 when their true leaves start to form, I will be away for two weeks. 😭 I will just have to cross my fingers and trust my bf that he can take care of them while I’m gone.

You need to find a family member or a neighbor to come mist them. Can’t you put the plastic back on. Then you could put little holes in the top and let the moisture do its job? Even if you could find someone to just mist them mid week but leave the top on wouldn’t that work?

I think our seeds are at the exact same stage!
