Since I have seeds from selected semps this year along with Park's grand cross section, I'm noticing something I didn't see last year: Most of the new seedlings before they get their true leaves all seem pretty much alike: fairly delicate little things. The cell pack with Heuf "Bronze Ingot" seedlings are noticeably a darker green, shorter and stockier. Interesting. They are still coming up -- 15 of those now.

I also wonder why the rate of germination for the Silverine seedlings is so very (VERY) much higher!? I'm going to end up thinning them out rather then just dividing them up. They are a solid carpet of green now... Of course it could just be the way the seeds were treated, but still, it's an interesting phenomenon. MR
