Today was a productive day. I sowed three different types of tomatoes in soil block cubes. I also transplanted the sweet pepper seedlings, which had sprouted in the soil blocks and waited there for too long the transplantation into larger growing pots.

Unfortunately, I also had to deal with an aphid infestation on my couple month old jalapeño and chili seedlings, and I really hope the treatment was effective.

I will soon run out of desktop space and it is still too cold to put the seedlings into a balcony.

🚨 WE HAVE GERMINATION 🚨 I REPEAT 🚨 WE HAVE GERMINATION

@nerdhof #Germination is a fun time when it’s cold and white outside. Gardeners can wonder what to do if the seeds in every #SoilBlock grow, or what to do if the peppers are prolific. We use #Fermentation of mixed hot pepper mash when we have a good year. Sometimes the harvest is small when the cutworms and rabbits take their share and then some.
