This is my first year indoor seed starting and I’m very excited to get a head start on my short 4b growing season. I’ve picked up great tips from this sub, and have already lowered my lights significantly to reduce leggyness, and removed the heating pads after the initial sprouting. I’m just looking for general advice based on how my sprouts are looking. I’ve started onion, rosemary (which has not sprouted and I’m learning is hard to grow), cannabis (I live in a legal state), thyme, sage, basil, cabbage, broccoli, kale, and cauliflower, with more to be planted in the coming weeks. Thank all!

  1. That growing medium does not look massively healthy to me

    Soil is too saturated, lay off the watering-youve got algae on the surface already

    Did you cold stratify your rosemary? Maybe put some ice cubes to water your rosemary for a few weeks. I’m not saying it works, I’m experimenting this year with rosemary as well. lol. but I’m trying a few ways and have a good local nursery for plants if all else fails.

    I did read that Onions don’t like wet soil, let then dry out between watering. I started mine February 10th and wish I had started earlier. They are so slow! I can safely plant May 1st in zone 6b.

    It looks like you ran out of soil. None of those containers are filled.

    Your poor thyme looks like it’s about to be told to put the lotion on its skin.
