It's been quite a past 24 hours... 3 inches of rain, and thunderstorms. So I covered them in 2 ply plastic. Before I put the stakes in I used the victorian lantern cloche lid, heavy as shit but cant use with the stakes. It's been a godsend to keep the little ones safe. Note the fishing line to keep pests out. Anyway there's gypsy moths around this time of year and one of the gypsy moth caterpillars munched on some baby pot leaves. I think I caught it in time and the seedling should make it. I went straight to get aluminum tape cause caterpillars are unable to cross it. Now the whole she-bang has aluminum tape around it. Of the eight there are 2 bagseed, 3 WW feminized and 3 serious AK. Yes I germed them outdoors right in those cups with a hole poked in the bottom. I used promix seed starter. I also used the victorian lantern cloche to keep slugs and varmints out and put them in semi sun at 75-80 in the days and a few of the nights down to 40...they all sprouted one week later. Theyre now in a mix of promix seed starter, mixed with a little miracle grow potting soil, and then generously fortified with worm castiings.
