I'm not sure how many tobacco are going to live as a few of the small ones just faded away. Actually, I could go count the ones I think are okay, but I'm not going out there anymore today. Will check them tomorrow morning - when I transplanted them, is when the trouble started. It was almost like if I touched a leaf in the transplanting, it wilted.
When I listed the other plants at the bottom of my post about how things are growing, I left off two kinds of peas. The only way I can know for sure what is planted, is going by a page I printed where I listed all of them.
I feel fairly sure when you got me on this thread and I started learning to grow food last year, you didn't expect 126 containers to be in my garden this spring. I didn't, either, it just happened.
The only seeds under the grow lamp now are “Sweet Pickle Peppers” designed for containers and are small peppers of several colors. They have been under that lamp for several weeks and just this morning I saw for sure one plant in one cup and numerous other green bits of something in the other cup - should have plants up there in a day or so. That is going to be two or three more containers outside.
I think I'll have about 135 containers when cucumbers are transplanted as there is more than one plant in the smaller containers to transplant, plus these new peppers will require two or three containers. The Fingerling potatoes will make another container.
When they are all out there, most of the plants will be large enough then to know what they are by sight, and I'll take pictures and send them to you to post.
I hope the new plants you have going, the tomatoes, etc., will grow fast to get them into the garden. I started seeds the middle of January that needed 5 to 8 weeks before going into the garden, and based on the winter we had, I'll move that to the end of January next year.
Have a good garden work day and then have an adult beverage to celebrate the work you did. Right now, I could drown myself in such a drink, but took a pain pill and will have a drinky-poo this evening.
Here is a true statement - if you didn't exist, I would have NOTHING growing in my garden. It's all your fault.
My work here is done. ;)
I think I got scammed. Daughter asked me to watch them for a little bit while she dropped off some books at the 1/2 price store. A couple of hours ago.
The kids just set up their Kindle(tm) tablets for my wireless internet. I think they plan on staying for a while.
