tomato seedlings

tomato seedlings under the grow lights, first week of may. still too cold back then to plant outside, but they're getting HUGE! (our last frost date up in minnesota isnt until end of may)


the watermelon seedlings i transplanted didnt do well, they started dying (left end and right end). i disturbed the roots to much. watermelon dont like being transplanted, but minnesota summers arent long enough for watermelon without starting the seeds indoors.


more overgrown tomato seedlings that need to be moved to bigger pots


cantelope seedlings doing wonderful


my teeeeeeny tiny stevia seedling. the first batch of seeds i planted amounted to nothing. this is from the second batch and i scattered over 50 teeny tiny seeds over three of those little pot spaces. only one sprouted.


i bought new 3.5" pots to replace the older, flimsier ones i've been using that are cracking and falling apart. so i'll be able to toss a bunch of falling apart pots this summer rather than having to wash them. and the pots came with a 'dibbler' or little tool to help transfer smaller seedlings to bigger pots. but its labeled as a jewelry tool for sorting beeds. beeds, seeds, tomato, tomahto. they're all teeny tiny.


i did this puzzle but i took it apart and put it away before i took a picture. i enjoyed this one. i didnt find everything listed on the back, but i found most. it was a fun one.


pics from the second time i made corned beef. i love this stuff.
