I decided I needed to start the rest of my seeds so I am starting inside my cowpeas, bush beans, yard long beans and some Scartett runner beans. They have joined the Armenian cucumbers that I set up the other day but have not sprouted as yet. I start them inside using those veggie six or 4 pack cells that I reuse and just put fresh potting mix in. Then I keep them in my kitchen cause it is warm and the seeds usually sprout quickly. After the seeds break the surface I bring them outside in the sunshine. If its still cold, I bring them in at night and put them out during the day. So lets see how long it takes them to sprout.
I also planted in ground my seedlings that I had I grew myself of cucumbers Straight Eight, Suyo Long and Camilla. And the melons seedlings. Planted them in ground also. I have Avara, Green Machine and Sakura.
I am taking no chances, I sprinkled the Sluggo around as soon as I finished planting. Don't want the slugs to eat up my seedlings. Last year I had bought Burpless Cuke seedlings and the slugs totally ate and wiped out the first batch. I had to buy them again and replant. I learned my lesson. Sluggo out as soon as they are planted.
Some of my Pepper plants have open flowers already. And my Suggery grape tomato not only has flowers but 5 green fruits already. And I see Sungold has open flowers today also. And Viva Italia has been flowering. The rest of the tomato plants are doing well, growing and much bigger than they were when planted.
My Zucchini have buds forming, I can see them. But my eggplant isn't doing much of anything yet. Just sitting there.
