Day before yesterday I planted seeds. For the garden I planted 2 kinds of onions, leeks, shallots, 3 kinds of sweet peppers, Batac eggplant and some rosemary seeds. The alliums should have been planted last month but it took a while to get seeds, seed starter stuff and of course the energy to do something. The rosemary seeds gave me a single weak plant last year and I hope I get at least a single healthy plant from them this year but rosemary is notoriously hard to start from seeds. Most you see for sale are from cuttings.
Yesterday I transplanted 16 of the 17 seedlings from the 172X F3-C5 seeds. I also transplanted the 2 seedlings from the 6 seeds of the possible crossbred seeds. Sadly these look like micro seedlings so that cross probably didn't take.
AND today I finished the requirements to apply for a badge bit in the Permie forum. This one is for sprouting seeds. I used some Einkorn, an ancient form of wheat, which is actually only grown out until the roots form. Then you dry the grain and use it in a number of different ways. I made porridge from my today and YUMMY that was very good. Filled out the submission for the badge bit including a photo. Now I have to wait until the admins look it over and decide if I fulfilled the requirements or need to start again.
