They look much greener in real life. I bragged too soon on my camera settings. I had trouble with a pot of Jamaica Yellow seedlings,a little bird was eating snails and got carried away scratching!! Darned snails ate the tops out of a couple of Candida Flore Plena X EP seedlings, made me really mad.
Cala they are too cute!!! I sure hope you mushed the snails!!!!!

I'll be waiting next winter to see these babies - you are going to be up to your eyes in brugs!
such cuties!!!
Might have to send some out to visit other gardens. I still have a hundred or so seedlings in pots that I didn't get planted this spring. I'm keeping them growing now, they are about 2 ft tall and will take off like crazy if I move them to bigger pots, so I'll wait till spring. I need a farm,I have one with wonderful soil, but it's 50 miles away!!(and all grown up with weeds and grass right now)
Calalily, I have question for you.. You planted all seeds in one pot? When they all grow, all you do is sepreate, plant each one in each pots?
that's what I do too.
Yes Mini, that's what I do. These are long pots, like fit on a window sill. For the little round pots, I will use two for a pod, then separate when they get too crowded.
Now that is a bunch of babies. Cala did you soak,soak & peel or just plant them?
Just planted, fresh from the plant on some, dried seeds on others. I never soak or peel. I've had a bit of trouble with the seed heads sticking, but I split them with my fingernail and they fall off on their own.
Great.. I am going to do it the same way like you did. Save the space... LOL..
Now this method really makes sense. I tried the other way with individual seeds in pots...too much work to keep them all watered...
I've done it this way several times, in fact, I still have some from spring in a pot, they are about 18 inches tall. Didn't get them planted, figured they were doing good, leave till spring next year.
