Day 5:
CG is very impressed with his 20 cent seed purchase. The poppies seem to be in a hurry and are working really hard to achieve plant status. By late March, they should be vibrant, healthy, and ready for a prolonged display of bright orange blooms.
(CG started the seed-sowing process with the impatiens and hopes it goes as well as the poppies!)
(CG decided to save $5 and use a recycled microwave food tray filled with peat moss as the growing medium for the second batch of seedlings...it has a black base, clear top -should work just as well)
