seed watch '09

I started these seedlings on March 1, and here they are this past Sunday, 3 weeks post-planting. I'm pleased to report a 100% germination rate!

I had some mold issues early on, but removing the covers during the day cleared it right up.

The plants get some sun from outside, but I'm supplementing with a 45 watt LED grow light 12 - 14 hours a day.

This weekend, I'll transplant the strongest seedlings to pots and start more. My last frost date is 2 months from today :)

Those look amazing! I planted some seeds for some indoor herbs around the same time you did; sadly my 100% germination rate became a 100% kill rate when I knocked the tray over. :( I replanted yesterday and am crossing my fingers that these ones take.
