Here are some of my earliest started seedlings. Rosa Bianca eggplants, sweet basil and cayenne hot peppers. They're all looking good, healthy and large! Last year i used the small 6 packs to start them, and then transplanted them into the same (though sterilized) 6 packs. This year, i transplanted them into 8 oz paper cups. It gives the roots more room to grow. It's only April 10th and these guys are already kissing the grow lights! Considering the frost date here in New Haven CT is May 15th, i may have started these a bit early. Oh well! Things in the garden look good. Though we're having a late spring, my peas, spinach, lettuce, bok choy, kale and chard are up! Teeny, but up!
