Growing nicely. Added some new autos into the pot and will be starting some tomato plants too.
Should be prepping the site this Thursday if the weather is ok.

Staring off this seedling inside my chameleon cage under a T5 UVB bulb. Not sure if it will make any difference but might be a good way to start off the plants so they don’t grow leggy.

So I’ve moved My largest seedlings under the T5 light. We are still getting frosts and I’m sick of this unpredictable climate.
I’ve been scouring google earth for a better grow site with access to water.
I think I’ve found the perfect spot. My only concern is the acidity of the ground but I’ll see what’s growing there when I visit it soon.

Been following along; if you work lime in the ground when you plant it will help cut some of the acidity, best of luck!

That’s a good idea! Thanks for the tip. I’m hoping it will be nice ground and won’t need much work but I’ll work in some manure and blood fish and bone pellets so they'll get the nutrition.

The Durban poison plants are growing nicely and I’ve just revived my Moby dick auto seeds. They will be started under the lights too.
I’m growing in canna coco with perlite and some manure at the bottom of the pots.

Got the Moby Dick auto seeds in their pots and the Durban poisons are growing away nicely. They seem to have been stunted by the last frost but hopefully will start growing allot faster. They are 11 week plants so they should put on some decent size.

Disappointingly, the Durban poison got really messed up by the random frost a little while ago. It seemed to have stopped growing so I have planted them in the flower bed and see if they survive.
The Moby dick that I germinated a week ago is growing incredibly fast and I’ve put the two best plants under some cut bottles so they get a nice green house temperature.
I’ve just reported them so should see some good growth over the next month.

Once a plant is above the ground you got to be careful with a Dome, maybe just put it on overnight if you think it's going to get cold, cuz it can cause humidity problems

Yeah I was concerned about that. I’ll take it off during the day.
I’ve got a plastic grow tent that I’ll be putting them in soon.
