This year, I labeled each soil block individually. These two photos are the 10-day mark for the plants. As you can see, there are lots of varieties of tomatoes. Some of the seed are different types of pepper and one type of eggplant. About 24% of the seed didn't germinate. I'm not sure if it's 'cause the seed is all heirloom from various sources or maybe my soil blocks are too compact. For what it's worth, the two varieties I plated last year from Baker Creek came up 100% and it's the same seed. Still, lots of plants and overall, I can deal with it.
Outside, the peas haven't come up and may not despite planting two times a week apart. I think it's still too cold, but Arkansas Statue University says you can start 'em. Didn't make sense to me as this time a year, it often dips below freezing. We'll give it a go weekly in the 4 planters till it takes. FYI, it's my first attempt at peas.
