Consequences of still going hard, but not being able to install a greenhouse this year. These have taken over two 3x3 grow tents and then some.
There’s more germing on some heat mats too!
These are a collection of flowers; marigolds, aster, lupins, nasturtiums, straw flower, corn flower, decorative grass.
There is also for veggies; peppers (9 types), tomatoes (9 types), onions and leeks.
On the heatmat, there’s the 4-6 week starts, so cucumber, melons, more flowers and some cucamelon.

My problem is that I never have it in me to thin seedlings aggressively, so depending on the plant, I might end up with a few seedlings in a single cell. For example, I planted 12 cells of a particular variety of pepper, and I ended up with 23 sprouts. Rather than kill them, i separated them into new cells, and now i have 23 plants. As I prune things like tomatoes, I stick cuttings into water, so those are multiplying, too.
That’s what I’m wondering about on a bunch. I know the peppers and tomatoes have to be thinned down to one a cup, they’ll compete with each other for nutrients, light, and space other wise.
The flowers I have no clue, so experimenting with a few different densities in some cups. Ornamental stuff isn’t AS important, but if you want some large blooms, you gotta let it thrive.
no such thing as too many. expand the garden until it eats your entire yard. then start sneaking into neighbors yards at night and planting seedlings.
Not wrong, thats the plan, but I had to pause my cannabis germing for a couple weeks cause of the lost space. They love that light though.
Next year hopefully wont be an issue, will have a greenhouse and a cold frame or two.
This is the way.
If you’ve got the room to plant them, then the sky’s the limit 🤣
Garden space I’ve got 144 sq/ft, but the flowers are going to go around the yard mainly, so can’t have too many of those!
I did try to only start as many tomatoes and peppers as I’m planning to use, with a few extras because not all will take.
I have some 2 week starts to do and some peas to plant before the last frost in a month. Always seems overwhelming eh?
