Looks familiar!! Smiling

EXACTLY!!! Smiling


Weedwhacker said:Those things are really easy to pull out and transplant... I took up small chunks with a steak knife (LOL, use what you have, right?) and put into more 6-packs, and probably could have had 50 flats of petunias if I had split them all up. If you're reasonably careful, most things can be moved around... even the things "they" say you shouldn't transplant. But sometimes it is just a lot more sensible to thin them out!! Rolling my eyes.


Well, I did start plucking out the really leggy ones. It was tough but I put the seedlings into my compost pile. I'll probably have plants growing out of there next. Lol!!!
