My first seed starting tray of 2004

This tray was started on January 20th, 2004 at around 22:00EST. I wanted to get a jump start on the medussa seeds since I'm planning to use a bunch of them for landscaping and I wasn't sure what kind of germination rate I was going to get. The other reason I only started these varieties was because I was still waiting on a whole bunch of seeds from my pepper pals. I put two seeds in each pellet and buried them. I ran into a lot of problems with this batch because I didn't have a good heat source to keep the tray warm and things were too wet. Added to that the seeds seemed to be too deep when I went looking for them. Overall I guess the germination rate was pretty good considering all the screw-ups. I've filled in the table with all of the germination dates as of 3/10. There are a lot of germination dates on 2/12 because I think that's the day that I dug up all of the seeds to let them breathe above the overly wet peat.

    As of 3/10/2004 The following seeds have popped:
  • 20/30 Medussa
  • 3/4 Mystery Orange Ornamental
  • 3/4 Wirri-wirri
  • 0/4 Galapagos
