I just hope it works well.<br /><br />Stefaneener, I can't wait to see them grow. The lettuce that I transplanted last week is growing so fast. I'm sure the brassicas will too.<br /><br />Granny, I always plant too many too figuring I'd lose some. The weird thing is that I didn't do extra chard so of course that was the one that had some failure. It seems really prone to failure if I forget to water one day.<br /><br />Dan, I'm hoping they way I'm doing it, it will be faster. Three weeks is a long time for germination.<br /><br />Mac, we can get some really strong winds too. I love the row covers for that. They break the wind. They don't stop it completely, but they do moderate it a bit. I haven't even started planting my tomatoes yet. I have to do that this week.<br /><br />kitsapFG, I just hope the broccoli can get enough nutrients to grow well there. We will see. Worse comes to worse I can pull a few of the plants and leave the others.<br /><br />The Idiot Gardener, I love Asian greens. There are so many though. I never know which ones to grow.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-23847652307357467552010-04-14T03:34:53.769-04:002010-04-14T03:34:53.769-04:00Some of those asian greens sound great.

We keep getting strong gusty winds, it's hard on the seedlings, my strawberries and raspberries lost their leaves to the winds. I'm hoping to transplant the tomatoes soon if the darn wind would stop blowing so hard.Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05406627092112574516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-89158713608839744972010-04-13T22:18:27.064-04:002010-04-13T22:18:27.064-04:00I had given up on them and low and behold they ger...I had given up on them and low and behold they germinated right out of the dry soil. I don't recall how long but it had to be at least 3 weeks. I know they didn't take that long last year, either way the germination rate was about 75%.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-84941355550743845222010-04-13T20:53:22.166-04:002010-04-13T20:53:22.166-04:00Your seedlings look so healthy.

They look lovely and healthy (especially that Gonzalez cabbage!) and I haven't the heart to give any away. I have 8 broccoli from direct seeding, doing well, 8 total were all I had planned on...I'll have at least double that amount!
