I know, i only started these a few days ago. And considering they're hot peppers, eggplants and parsley, the odds of the seeds coming up already are slim. Hot peppers can take up to 2 weeks to germinate, a certain amount of patience is required. It's why i start my hot peppers, eggplants and parsley early, they take a bit longer to germinate than basil or tomatoes. But if you've ever started your own seedlings, then you know the feeling. You just can't help looking at them, every day, a few times a day, just in case there's something coming up! I love starting seeds cause it gives you a lift, a hope that spring will actually get here in the not too distant future. The excitement when i see those first green shoots, gives me a thrill when i'm thinking winter will never end. I'd love to say I was patient, but that's a virtue i seem to have been born without.And one more tip, when you start your seeds, put seed starting mix in, water it BEFORE you add your seeds, then add the seeds and a bit more seed starting mix to cover them. This way, they have moisture but you're not watering them way down into the seed starting mix. You want the seeds close to the surface to germinate faster.
