Cof exp part 2

We made some more cof tonight so I have 4 more kcups to play with! An unused cof 2 used cof and a chai so all 4 to be fair have the same seeds in (gansania and orange/red marigolds there ones I harvested a couple years back) that way they should all do everything about the same time 


Sorry thought was better pic -- here's all 4 of them after a little watering the unused in the back rejecting the water and the lower chai also not liking so much water at all 


To tell them apart I marked all stripes on the 2 that were used (left) and some stripes on the unused (right) and simply wrote chai on the chai 

All the cof experiment are sitting in the water on the mat 

Also I got a list of things I'm having trouble with apart from my tulsi basil note: I typed this with the intent to paste on some Facebook places but my iPhone wants to act up so I'll post here so I can copy later ok? 

Exact not coming up are: old rosemary (95) guava pomegranate goji hot cherry bomb pepper white grape Concord grape (from the first 2 flats those coyote tomatoes have 1/3" true leaves or so ATM) and of the later planted: chia honey mesquite strawberries (good sign tho the ones planted before have one with seed leaves) passion fruit cherimoya sugar apple luffa Hopi yellow watermelon and prickly pear that's most of flat 3 only 1 reg mesquite and the corn are up on that one -- also most planted about the same time flat 4: early signs of germ on: Peter pepper 1 blue fruit tomato sweet mini pepper chili chili mat jang (a market pepper) marble pepper germ def on: hundreds and thousands tomato fish pepper and a single chili chili and nothing from the holy red and green basil of that flat the last 6 were later that includes the 2 varieties of cat grass that are up and thriving! The clearly germinating cilantro and the pineapple sage culantro and old rosemary that ATM are not showing signs of germination that I easily see 


Ok hope the fonts back that looks smaller to me lol as you can see it really is just a variety of things and really it could just be that I haven't given them enough time to come up tho I think most of the flats have been for atleast a couple weeks (feels like a month or more but I'm in zone 5 and I've got my stuff going way way early! Lol) so I've decided to try covering everyone up I'll defo keep an eye on them no doubt 


There's the top row (I've sence decided to move the car grass down) the ones I don't even see signs of germination are getting covered and I'm hoping for the best 


Here's the 2nd row example 


The whole thing --you can kinda see storage on bottom? That's only because I goofed with the instructions so I could have a rack higher up 


A quick glance over at the big greenhouse 


My overall setup ATM I do intend to move the location (still inside lol as a foot or more of snow outside!) 


And the auto adjust focused on the bottom of the little greenhouse --they defo need some movement because not everyone can get from that one light source and I don't have space for another (even another daylight cfl!)
