Houston We Have Take Off! Sprouts!

The seeds sprouted! William watched dutifully as little shoots poked out from their casings. He carefully tended them for three days until Sophie finally got around to documenting his progress.


maybe i should sing to them..



About half of the lettuce seeds sprouted. William and I attest their poor germination to the fact that the seed packet was two years old. However we are proud to announce that the lovely little lettuces that did grow are doing fabulously.



We are growing them in a salvaged plastic container... which used to hold store bought lettuce. William chuckles at the irony. The box contains the moisture when closed so William doesn't have to continuously water them due to to evaporation.
