Seed check-in
- Greek oregano - 2 sprouts out of approx. 20. One each from the buried and surface sown.
- French rosemary - 1 sprout out of 10 or so. Surface sown.
- lemon basil - 10/10 - surface sown and buried
- Italian pesto basil - 10/10 - surface sown and buried
- Italian sage 3/10 so far
- Teppin chilis - 0/4. I've since read that most chili germination problems come from peat being in the medium. And these are in peat pots.
For my "just soak them in giberillin solution and wait," I've moved four seeds of each species into rockwool cubes, two cubes/two seeds. Nothing sprouting other than ones I had to mark "??" as I didn't label them and I don't recognize them. They could be roma tomato all puffed up, but I believe more than the two would have sprouted by now.
The string beans got mushy.
