Should I re-pot these plants?
 
Hi

Thanks for reading. This is my first year gardenening, ever and was just wondering if 1) I planted too many seeds in the seed tray and 2) should I put them in bigger pots yet?

Secdonly, are these pots big enough for cabages (top) and cucumbers (bottom).

Any additional advice you can give from the pictues is great, thanks.

1) yes. i only put 2-4 seeds per section.
2) not yet, but you need to thin the seedlings you have to the
one strongest seedling per section now. it's better to use
tiny sissors & snip off the weaker seedings rather than
pulling them out & disturbing the roots of the one you are
keeping.

there's nothing to give a size perspective in the photo, but
i'm guessing those are 6" or 8" pots? if so, they're ok for
starting, but you can't grow tham out in them. you'll need at
least 12" pots, & preferably larger if you plan to grow the
plants in pots. that's per plant (although 2 cucumbers should
be ok in a 14" or larger pot)

Any additional advice you can give from the pictues is
great, thanks.


don't keep your cucumbers that wet. you'll get fungus &/or
mildew.

Pot somewhere between the time the plants show true leaves, to the time
when the leaves start to touch.
