All the cucumbers, melons, squash, and 1 runner bean are up. I thinned everything to 2. When the first cucumber sprouted I looked at the bottom of the pot by chance and noticed there was already a root poking out! The hibiscus has another flower ready to open, the other fell off the same day I noticed it so I guess I missed it for a day or two.

Whole lotta tomatoes.

22 lbs / 10 kg of San Marzano and 7 lbs of my saved seed campari.

The first petunia blooming that sprouted in the overwintered indoors verbena pot.

The cucumbers came up tuesday (shown), some runner beans today, and tonight I saw some of the melons coming up and maybe something else. I didn't have heat under them, just under the lights, maybe 70-75F, 23C, on the surface when the lights are on.

I turned the heat mats on tonight, some of the pots were too wet and I don't want the squash or melons to take too long to come up. All saved seeds except squash.

I planted all the squash, cucumber, and melon seeds except yellow crook-neck that will be here Monday. 22 pots plus 6 runner bean pots I started yesterday and I need to put some runner beans in the ground too. I made a rough layout of the raised beds and places tomatoes are going too. All the basil will go in the long raised bed. Winter squash are bush type this year.

I potted up most of the peppers into gallon pots today. Filled a tray of 18 for cucumbers, squash, and beans but only planted the runner beans. I might be able to get rid of a tray of plants this weekend so I'll have enough tray space to start the melons too. The ground and raised bed is ready for tomatoes but it's going to be a cool week ahead.

The peppers are doing typical indoor pepper things. Last week it was getting humid in there so I opened it up for a couple of days to dry it out. A little bit of edema on some some peppers but it's all lower leaves that will die off anyway. There's a fan that circulates the air down when the lights are on and I have vents open now. Need to prune the geraniums more. Basil is doing great.

Capsicum annuum have been planted. 5 pots each of saved seed. Two sweet, one hot. California Wonder, Red Marconi, and Jalapeno. Sieved potting mix to remove the chunks of wood and rocks. On a 17 watt heat mat with a clear cover, and under one LED panel adjusted to about 220 µMol/m2/S. Temperature warmed from 63F / 17C to 78F / 26C in 2 hours or less.
