unicornduke I forgot to post that I seeded my second round of seeds the other day. It's the tomatoes (new ones that I didn't have the A Farm grow for me), sesame, and some random things to space things out. So two of my sesames are up fast and so is my basil. We'll see when the tomatoes get going.
One of the issues I'm having with my first set of transplants growing is that my room is too cool. I keep my windows open at night because the downstairs apartment heats my room super well and I overheat very easily at night. The plants are growing right by the windows to take advantage of the sunlight it gets. So I suspect they get cold at night and don't like it much because most things aren't getting any more growth than their cotyledons, although they could just be going very slowly. Although now that I think about it, last years tomatoes only had one or two sets of leaves other than cotyledons.
Maybe next year I'll get some heat mats. I still need to start the rice, although that will be in at least a week. They are going in tiny plug trays and will be planted out within three weeks.
