Problems with germinating Broccoli...
I am starting some Broccoli transplants to be put out later in the Summer
for a Fall crop. I have put 4 seeds in each peat flat to be thinned out later once the small plants have come up. I started pepper plants in the same type of peat flats in the same container, and set it in the same location. The temperature inside my house never gets above the low to mid 80s. I also started morning glory seedlings in the same way and those just exploded with growth after only 4 days. The peppers germinated in about a week. However my broccoli hasn't germinated after 11 days and I'm getting worried. I have kept them moist and as cool as possible inside the house, without being TOO cool, somewhere in the 70 to 85 range during the night and day. I am aware broccoli does not germinate well in warm temperatures. I am dealing with 4 different varieties of Broccoli, which I got from Burpee this year. Can anyone offer any additional hints to something I may be missing? |
