So basically, here's what happened..I got all these seed starters and planted them in the little brown biodegradable cups they came with..they all sprouted and were looking really good so I planted them in the containers in the pictures. I'm thinking I possibly planted them too early..(not in the season..if anything I think I could have planted earlier in the season, I mean I should have waited until they were larger.) They are in about 8-10 inch deep soil, the containers all have drainage holes, I water them with lots of water, not a dribbling, and they are all in full sun. So my guess is that they were too young? It's also been very hot and humid here in central MA, and this week is supposed to be high 90's and humid..not sure if the heat also has had something to do with it. But..my question is, do I let them go and see if something happens? Especially the lettuce and kale as I know they like to grow in cooler temps.. Or should I make more room on my deck because it wouldn't be worth the space they're taking up, and the water I'm wasting on them? If it's something like.."oh they're all still green and not dead, they'll grow eventually with the right care"...I would hate to throw them away, but if they're just stunted and my efforts don't matter then I'll just toss them. Does that make sense?
