|    Seeds in!    |
|    21 May 23 13:28:32    |
      From: T@invalid.invalid              Hi All,              Tuesday, I spent nine hours cleaning out wees and two hours planting       seeds. I am still soar! But Since Herbal medicinae is one of my       hobbies, I hit the BF&D (bone, flesh , and cartilage) pretty hard and       most of the soreness is down.              We are not suppose to plant to the first week in June, due to the random       freezes, but we are having a hot spell (80F day and 50 night), so I took       the risk and planted anyway.              I have terrible luck with tiny seeds. But I took the risk       and planted two types of onions, eggplant, and tomatillos which have       tiny seeds. After June I can not get ANYTHING       to sprout up. I presume it is the heat cooking them in       the soil, but I do not know. It could be the earwigs eating them too.              So now I wait and wonder if anything will sprout. Oh, and complain       about the feed hurting, my back hurting, my legs hurting, yada, yada,       yada...                     And how the hell did my head get sunburned whilst       wearing this hat !?!?!              https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086GG1X3M              Most of the seeds went in in the dark. I had       to switch my headlamp to Red and the bugs       attached me with white. Gave me a start when       some of the seed packed in white paper envelopes       and white seeds. The seed disappeared under       red light. I thought they had shipped me an       empty packet. Temporarily switching back       to white light solved that issue.              The waiting on the sprouting is driving me nuts.       PATIENCE!!!!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
