First time newbie
Now for my first question. I have three lots of seedlings wallflowers,
nicotiana and mimulus. They are all grown from seed and are 3-4 weeks old. They range in size from 1/2" to 2". Here is the problem, a friend of mine whilst bringing them in and out of the house has managed to mix up the groups and I cant tell which is which. The smallest mimulus will only grow to about 8" whilst the nicotiana can grow up to three foot. Hence my problem. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -- auntie_biotic http://www.tbandu.co.uk |

Once you've got true leaves: Nicotiana - slightly hairy Mimulus, slightly more yellowy green, rather thin and flimsy, like lettuce Wallflowers - smooth green, darker than mimulus, and longer, with pointed tip -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

'auntie_bionic',
These are very young wallflower seedlings: http://www.gardenopus.com/images/See.../Erisymum2.JPG These are wallflower seedlings four weeks old: http://www.gardenopus.com/images/See...03/ErysTP1.JPG These are nicotiana seedlings, but the photo. is not very clear: http://www.biosci.missouri.edu/holts...Matt/Matt.html I don't think that this mature stem of mimulus will help you but, of course, if you identify the other two this one speaks for itself. http://www.bachcentre.com/centre/38/mimulus.htm Good luck, Regards, Emrys Davies.
