I simply put together plants by size and color for use in hanging baskets (Christmas gift for wife). The Jiffy pots were a learning curve as well. I believe I soaked 30 of them before I realized there was a top and bottom to them; the netting was getting purposely torn open to allow for seed placement. I am concerned about the moisture they hold. I'm hoping the combination of dome removal and bottom heat will start drying them out a bit. Looking ahead, I'm somewhat confused as to when the time to transplant is. I am reading that when the 1st two(2) true leaves appear it's time to move them. Almost all my sprouts have two(2) leaves on them at the top; are these not "true" leaves? Pleased with the Nastortiums so far, and can claim 100% germination on the Purple Wave Hybrid Petunias that went in. Haven't seen anything from the Atlas Mix Pansies yet though........will wait I guess. |
