Last of the season’s brassicas
These brassica seedlings—broccoli, cauliflower, kale, early-maturing cabbage—were started a week ago, way late by any planting guide standard for our region, but I’m going by the reality of our recent crazy weather. Last year’s “late” cabbage family seedlings did just fine, so I’m gambling again! There are a couple of 200-cell trays of lettuce in there as well…
We share the same zone, although not quite same weather. All of our crops this year was started very late, about two weeks before the ones in this post. So far, they’re moving right along. Minus the peppers… peppers are struggling.
How do you get your seedlings out of those trays safely? Do you try to keep the soil around the seedling, or do transplant the bare sprout into new dirt?
When I try to pull out the soil as a plug, it usually disintegrates.
I’m just wondering on where you order your seeds. Thank you!
Howdy,
I just wanted to let you know that I have been reading for a while and I would like to sign up for the feed. I’ll give it a try but I might need some help. This is a terrific find and I would hate to lose touch, and maybe never discover it again.
Anyway, thanks again and I look forward to reading again sometime!
