So I emailed them a few days ago about the herb one actually I've taken pics of the herb grass and farm kits to follow:
Sorry didn't realise was gonna be so dark didn't want glare
There first looked blurry
Ok things to note: the bombs say germination starts on day 1 they also say "contains a mix" and the herb shows a picture of many things coming up not only that but it implies everything will start sprouting within 5 days so I'm calling complete bull on that I did contact them and I thoroughly trashed the product I did even include a link to this blog which will include PICTURES with approx dates and times associated via the post as well it's clear to see the outher seeds I've planted are coming up perfectly which only proves I have a good setup! I mean a daylight cfl (100 watt) a heating mat in the same greenhouse helping keep temps up and the outher seedling stuff helping warm and add moisture too and now one singular tiny sprout what? Like a month later not to mention only like dill parsley or fennel type seeds in that bomb when it says "contains a mix" in each bomb! The packaging also claims they will last "over four years" I have seeds from 2008 and even 2012 and some from 95! (The rosemary planted all only expecting a few to pop) so those being dated 2012 based on my experience and the 4 year claim mean nothing really especially as it's still in the 4 years (2016 I baught in 2013 and it's barely into 2014)
So just for argument sake and sence it's Monday I'm gonna plant the rest of them and see what happens then I have a "day 1" type baseline to go with because for seeds those are ideal conditions that I have! Hell I'm tempted to try the outher one that needs to be chilled they claim and leave it out here as it's chill lol
Also last night I noticed my little Haloween light was on not bright but still neat I think don't know if I'll get more or not but I like it lol
Ok guys posting this about 12-14 hours later lol --I also went thru and muddled with the flats seperated some things left outhers re-arranged and here's some pics from before I put it all back together
There's the acai I'm trying to get growing and I think I'm failing badly at lol --said soak in warm water so it's soaking over a heating mat lol! I honestly have no clue what I'm doing in regards to it lol
Here is that farm garden thing all slapped together (literally) so I'm not expecting much from it as I didn't get much from the bomb (same company) they also claim things will stay the size to live in there another I'm calling bull on
With dome lid on heating pad
The extras that I have sence worked into the setup
There's the middle row and yup there all marked where from on the bottom ex: 1/2-2 I do know there were a LOT of coyote tomatoes! I may trade sell or give away the extras don't know yet depends in part on the offers I think or what I need more
And the top row as you can see flats 3 and 4 still chilling up there trying to get more light
Here's all of it from a distance some defo are getting better light then outhers making me wonder about cracking out my outher fixture
And I've got a LOT going on in the big greenhouse! Tons of peppers sprouting (in the back)
Here's my aloe and bay both of which appear quite alive still
There's my first set of unknown seeds (past peppers) and it looks like I'll have MANY more of the outhers as well possibly more then I know again may sell trade or give them away don't yet know on these eighter (long as I get a few good plants myself lol)
That green container inside there are a bunch of fungus gnats or whatever they are and my avacadoes appear not to be doing much more?
Has been one hell of a day to boot felt like nothing wanted to behave I also lost 2 that I moved but they hadn't germinated or done anything so meh I guess just hope I can pull off the needed space for all of these (and I have 1 more variety I'm waiting on to get going that should allready be in my mail!) then I have no clue what I'll do lol still gotta buy some lol
