Decided to germinate in Mid June for its warm temperatures which allow seedling to grow with no thermal shocks during night time.
I personally developed a germination tecnique which combines the easy inspection of glass of water with the protective environment of paper towel.
It consists in a seed put between the internal lateral surface of a glass and a wet paper towel.
The seed is placed with the root side already oriented downwards so that the transfer into the soil is facilitated.
Due to the very warm environmental temperatures the pot was placed in a warm and sunny location with direct sunlight only after 1 pm in order to avoid excessive water evaporation.
28/06:
- Transferred into the greenhouse.
- Buried some kelp meal next to the stalk
- Put some eggshell to keep snails away.
01/07:
- No particular action to mention
- Put some oyster shells to keep snails away.
03/07:
- put a web to avoid my pets pooing on the girl.
After 10 days on holiday my girl stretched a lot due to light gap caused by climbing zucchini and tomatoes which wildly took possession of the greenhouse. 😂😂
