I could have used this in February! I'm in Georgia, so I started them then. The whole first set died. Thank God the next set did great. It was the first time it ever happened to me
Oh damp!
That's why i use pot noodles pots. Poke hole in the bottom.
I use shop lights for my starts. 2” above the seedlings
You mean , "We over watered them BY accident."
My cucumbers did this 😔
I've been struggling with growing lettuce from seed. I use a fan, put the grow lights close, and only water when it looks and feels dry but the seeds sprout inconsistently and seedlings seem weak from the start. My other seedlings like bell pepper, tomatillo, tomato, melon plants, and cucumber do well under the same conditions, so I'm not sure what's wrong. I moved the containers of lettuce ouside on my porch to see if that helps about 2 days ago. I hope they recover and start getting bigger so I can plant them in the ground to replace ones that have bolted.
What about algae on seed starting soils and how to control them
Super weird, last year my amish paste grew so fast and full, this year they are still only a couple inches tall with only 2 sets of leaves. However, my royal paste looks great. 🤷🏽♀️
1st year starting corn indoors. Planted Saturday and they are already popping. Will be put outside in a few weeks. Hope they dont grow too big 😮
