OK, finally got to the chores. I set up the last two trays, only using one so far, but that will change soon. Pic 1 is how the window looks now.

All the Nicotiana babies are on the bottom. The Leonotis nepaetifolia was huge, and the N tabacum Red Russian and N glutinosum Peach Screamer were pretty big too, with roots all tangled up. I don't think the Leonotis would have minded if I separated them all, very vigorous grower to say the least, but I don't have room for all of them so I planted them HOS- Hunk Of Seedlings, in 2.5" pots (6). The others are in cells. I'll thin them once I'm sure they're stabilized. N langsdorfii x Alata is small, like the regular N lang, and so is the N mutabilis. I'm keeping a dozen of each.

And the rest keep growing. I gave the big Asclepias a haircut, it was too tall, too close to the lights.

I was planning to start the next batch of annuals today, but suddenly have other chores to deal with. This weekend for sure...
