If this storm is following the I-95 route through N.H. & Maine like they said....I'll get hit for sure.

Meanwhile I will keep you posted as to Seedies progress.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Seedie, huh? Maybe "Yul" will be a better choice if no growth. :)

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

There might be a change. I wonder how many "pets" actually grow for people?

Hannibal, NY(Zone 6a)

Did you soak your kitty? You might want to put a plastic bag loosely over her, and give it some humidity. What a bummer that would be if it didn't sprout.

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

i'M GOING TO CHECK OUT THE SUCCESS RATE ON gOOGLE

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Its been 8 days since I speared the seed goo on the pet.
I have kept it in a shower cap and moved it about 2-3 feet from the window where it's warmer.
I got early sprouts. Seeds are swelling and growing white shoots.

Looks like "Yul" won't be a good name then!! Congrats!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

I never thought past the seedcrust.
Maybe Albert would be better.
OR, maybe we will spent the entire time on the life of this thread making up names that fit the pet in its latest state of metamorphsis.

Uh-oh....looks diseased!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

I hope to see real leaves in a week.

Hannibal, NY(Zone 6a)

I see the sprouts! Yay Albert.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Yay!! We have sprouts!!!!

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

cool!!!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

I have never owned one of these.
I dont see it as a career.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

LOL!

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

HAHAHAHAHAHA, Jo Ann! That's funny!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Here is the latest.
Real green leaves and mold due to the "mini greenhouse" and too much built up moisture

OMG....looks like it's from space!

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Looks like bean sprouts

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

yep

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Oh Dear! I had that mold thing happen in one of my seed trays last year here. Ugh. Is there a funeral planned? :(

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Not yet.
I doubt we will bury the whole thing when just a crop dies.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

squirt it with peroxide... it might help

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

will do, then its up to the fates.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Sounds like a plan! Hope it works! If not, you can probably make up your own solution to start over!

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Little leaves are popping out.I'm still hopefull

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Crossing fingers for you Jo, and putting away the funeral dress neatly in the closet. :)

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

I would have requested" no black" in any event.
Maybe spring colors and big hats.

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Well, thankfully, I won't have to make the choice. lol

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Its green on half the pet.

Yay.....that side looks very cool, Jo.

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

Half a pet is better than none so I will keep that side toward my view.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

that's all

Southwest , NH(Zone 5b)

Clever you!! :) How long will the sprouts get?

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)

They are growing and as soon as its daylight enough I will send a pix.

Pittsford, NY(Zone 6a)
