Germination in 3 1/2 days!

in Gardening, Growing seedlings, Seed starting on 04/12/13

It really is amazing how fast seeds sprout when using a bio-dome on top of a heat mat.

Really, I don’t make any money from promoting bio-domes, I just really love them for seed propagation.

Below is an example of a dome planted with seeds (Melon, Cucumer, Summer and Winter Squash) late on Friday night. This photo was taken Tuesday morning. 3 1/2 days to emerge.  Not bad! The heat mat of course is crucial for the speed of germination.

I had the heat set to 80°.

Meanwhile, outdoors in the Earthboxes the greens are coming along nicely. These photos were also taken on Tuesday (April 9)

    Wonderful, beautiful, jättefint! Here in Sweden (Uppsala) there is still snow in my garden and still a bit time left before even planting indoors. I want that Pak Coi!
