Friday

Moved everything off the altan to power wash.

Warm/reasonably sunny today ~18C
Collected seeds from jacob's ladder, rose campion.  Moved the rest of the seedlings from the bread bags into IKEA bags, much heavier/better ziploc seal.

Gymnocalicium baldianum 11 seedlings up.  1 seems totally different, prob. diff species (very round and low, not skinny or heart shaped).  Sowed 23/6/14

4 strep seedlings up in ebay mix 2, 1 seedling up in bonus mix (saw it before, didn't see it today, but didn't look for a long time)...  zero germination in ebay mix 1. OP seeds, so who knows what will come out.

Watered streps today... was very hot in the frame, they were a little wilty.

Mixed cactus seedlings sowed 26/6 are growing.  Not quite sure when to pot them on...some are touching, but they seem to still be growing.

Trimmed rosemary and put down 8-9? cuttings in the same 12 pack as the angelwing begonia and peperomia cuttings.

Harvested:
  • Geranium pratense striatum ‘Splish-splash’ (relatively few seeds per seedhead, can see why they sell @$1 each 0.o
  • Polemonium caerulium Jacob's Ladder 
  • Allium schoenoprasum Chives
  • Aquilegia (columbines)

Man I miss Freddy Mercury, Culture Club, Cyndi Lauper etc... spent the afternoon listening to 80's monster hits :D
