2016 Progress

This year I have started just a few days earlier than usual, but apart from that it's business as usual.

Seeds were soaked for 24 hours and then into Rootriot cubes on the 21st Dec, with the lights on at night and the heated propagator on for 30 mins of every 45. Two seeds per cube gives me six chances of 16 varieties for 96 possibles. Enough chances for two of each for me and plenty to give away.

First to germinate was one seedling of Fidalgo Roxa on Christmas Day and then it's been a case of seeing up to ten a day for a little while. Now on New Year's Day I can safely say I've got at least one of everything up. I don't think that's ever happened before.

Roll on spring.
