Seedlings and Worms

First bed

Progress

I've been grossly under-watering my seedlings. I found a few of my tomatoes nearly dead a few days back. After assessing the situation I determined that there was entirely too little water available to my seedlings. I've moved up to doubling the watering regimen, and have seen a complete turn around, and some stunning growth from some stuff that was generally dormant. 

Camping

I picked up a 7 dollar clear PVC table cloth off of Amazon. I've been concerned my garage has been too cold and that if I hope to get these seeds going properly, light wasn't going to be enough. I added the heat mat under the starting try to get a leg up, but I wanted to try to capture some of that heat from the lamps. This seems to work really well, and I've seen the temps jump nearly ten degrees from it.

In to overdrive!

My new overdrive 2 lamp t8 fixture with some weird GE grow lamps. Plus I added a seedling heat mat.

Death of the Cotyledons

My recent infusion of 6 new pairs of lamps seems to have motivated my Redfield Beauties to begin to shed their seed leaves and start to grow some more serious real leaves. Love it.

Moving Day

Moved a few of the peppers to pots as they were busting out of their pucks. I am out of 4 in pots, and nearly out of soil. I will need to do something about that soon. Sadly lighting is at a premium again... DIY LED panel anyone?

Spring is sprung in my garage

Or so it would seem.
