I have more space to start plants this year, but it’s still very worth it for us to conserve space where we can. To that end, we’re starting several species in a “mob grow” style with many many seedlings in each pot rather than individual smaller cell trays. Once they’re of a size for transplanting we’ll be able to tease them all apart either for planting in the gardens or repotting for sales or donation.
h/t to Bobby over at Small Scale Permaculture (yt link) for convincing me to try this out with more species.
Hello little guys :)))
I jiggled the pot a little so they all waved back
I just planted a bunch of veggie seeds a few days ago and I can’t help but check on them like five times a day.
That’s an appropriate amount of checks per day, for a slacker.
I kid, I kid. It’s just so exciting when they finally sprout, it’s like the ultimate payoff
I just checked and one has sprouted!!
Diligence pays off! 💪
There is something magical about seeing that little green starting up. I have been staring at my yard to see if anything is coming up.
Ours is still half covered by snow, but that hasn’t stopped me from walking the yard and encouraging the bushes to keep pushing buds
Also helpful.
At first glance I thought this was some weird soup.
Rubbed my eyes and now I see the cute little ones.
