Bizzie Lizzies, Peppers & Squashes
Apr. 11th, 2006 01:38 pmThe second batch of peppers has finally started to germinate.
The Bizzie Lizzies (OK, impatiens) are now quite big, and are suffering from the direct sunlight on the utility room windowsill: they need more shade. Maybe I can move them into the living room: it's far too cold for them to go out in the garden or even the greenhouse yet. Or the porch maybe?
I've decided that I shall pop one of each squash and pumpkin into the heated propagator as soon as the peppers are big enough to come out: that is a bit earlier than last year, but last year I didn't use the propagator and germination was very slow as a result. This year I shall try kickstarting them.
