General update – Seed germination progress
It has been one week since planting the Toy Choy and Buckwheat seeds. The weather has been relatively cold, below seasonal and we also had some near zero degree Celsius days, so it doesn’t look like either have germinated.
Definitely no Buckwheat yet. I’m not sure about the Toy Choy because I topped up both planters on Friday when I got a new bag of Sea Soil. Perhaps I shouldn’t have topped up the planter with the Toy Choy because those seeds are very small and you generally cover up the seeds relative to their size. I may have delayed the germination, but I thought it might help protect the seeds a bit better if we have another cold snap and to add some nutrients to the soil. We’ll see how it goes!
No action on the peas yet, since I just planted them yesterday.
The crocosmia, snap dragons and columbine continue to grow well. Still no sign of the calla lily and butterfly bush.
