lettuce seeds

Hi all, I've recently planted some lettuce seeds in the hopes of them sprouting into lovely plants .. Perhaps I'm a little anxious, but the seeds have not yet sprouted and I'm worried it might be a bit too cold for them at the moment .. I've been keeping the growing medium moist and have kept them outside but undercover, away from the rain.. In Melbourne we've been having 10-12 degree days so I'm thinking that might be the reason I've not seen any lettuce action as yet .. Can someone suggest whether they'll eventually come up, or I should just wait for the days to get warmer before trying this again? Thanks! They're alive!! They say that watching paint dry is tedious. Watching grass grow, apparently worse. Well, watching these lettuce germinate was high up in the list!! Anyway, after a painful two weeks of minimal action, I came home from work the other day, and there are about twenty little sprouts in each cup that the lettuce are growing in. I'm thinking perhaps I put too many seeds on each. hehe We'll see how it goes once they start growing properly. Anyway, I'm so relieved that they're growing! In other cups a Chives Basil Oregano Rocket Raddish Pictures coming soon to those interested! |
