Some petunias opened their eyes today.

And these petunia seedlings continue to grow in ascending order..

PETUNIA IN WINDOW BOX

This time petunias are self-sowing in different pots and containers and the mix ‘n’ match they have done themselves looks pretty good; petunias with nemesia. Also, just like last year I thought they haven’t germinated, but surprise! I noticed them when they were already good sized seedlings healthy and lush without any care. Now, who minds that!

I never had to transplant, they came up at perfect places, no doubt.. I love petunias!!

The small containers that I planted with marigold and phlox are doing well too except the last one.. I have planted it twice, the soil mix is same.. the care is same.. but it still won’t hold a plant 🙁

MARIGOLD SEEDLINGS IN SMALL POTS

Also the seeds that I planted in ground are sprouting.. sunflowers being the earliest.. so I have removed the very heavy greenhouse cloth and replaced it with normal cloth that will allow in filtered light.. the seedlings need space so it has been raised by bricks.. and next to it I have hung the greenhouse cloth on a wire to prevent direct light which will dry up the set-up.

COVERED SEEDLINGS GERMINATION

The seeds in containers have not sprouted yet but I can see adequate moisture so no problem on that account..

Also started some seeds indoors which I did not want to grow in large nos.. also its fun doing this so as u can see the set-up I have plastic containers labelled and filled with cocopeat.. after the seeds were sown I covered with sand according to light requirements.. and just to experiment I used ice-trays and put 1-2 seeds in each compartment.. right now I have two lights placed over it out of which one isn’t working properly so will have to get it repaired tom.. my hopes are high!!
