I can't believe they made it...

Here are some germinated broccoli and a cabbage.  These are from the starts I thought I'd lost.  I had forgotten about them for a day and the soil blocks dried out so I thought the seed died.  I watered them and they sprouted the next day.  I have to be more careful and watch more closely for new sprouting.  They are now safely under my grow light.

And here are 3 of the broccoli from earlier, the ones that were so lanky when I left the blocks too wet.  I transplanted 3 that survived and a new sprout from a later start so I have 4 broccoli plants under the lights now.  Here is the result 2 days after repotting.  I think they might make it.
It takes time to get the hang of starting seeds.  Luckily I'm going to a seminar on the 17th when a Master Gardener will teach us to start seeds and plan a veggie garden.  Its in conjunction with our new Organic Community Garden being started this year beside the town library.  I'll be an eager student.  I can apply the learned ideas to my later starts.  I hope they work out better than the first ones.  Probably by the time I need to start tomatoes, I'll know what I'm doing.
