Transplanting Vinca

Not all vinca seed germinated.


Time to pot them up. Most have 4 leaves a few still only have 2.
I usually put a cut piece of paper towel in the bottom of the pot so soil doesn't drain out. Instead of 4-5" pots I normally plant them in I opted for a smaller  3 inch pot.


The first watering with a 1/2 fertilizer and put under the plant lights again.

I'll let the coleus get a little bit bigger before I pot them up. Where is chocolate mint and chocolate covered cherry? In time I hope. Love seeing them get their true color pattern.

Petunias growing slower than I remember. Haven't started them in a few years. They'd probably die if I don't water them every day, just a little misting.

Bringing all the hyacinths from the basement. Not a good season for them and these may not do anything. They had more than enough chill time and darkness but most didn't develop roots at all. This has never happened.

My hyacinth. Just don't know what happened to them this season.

The fire felt good. It was in the 40's today but it felt much colder. Plants are amazing. My house plants have all started to grow new leaves all over especially pothos and philodendrons. It must be longer days and the spectrum of sun light changing, yeah.

They smell so good scenting up the living room.

Counting the days till spring. Tomorrow maybe I'll start some other seeds.
