Lots of streps in bloom or getting ready to bloom.  Having some troubles with slugs? something eating on some of the leaves.  Also extremely irritating that the flats + transparent drinking cups they're potted in makes them fall over CONSTANTLY.  Such a pain to check them and see how they're doing.  Ugh.  MUST find a solution.

Leaves are doing well except for the strep sections which don't seem to be doing much.

VERY limited germination in the strep seeds from ebay.  Total is about 8-10 plants from all 300(?) sown.  Very disappointing.

Started working in the cold frame and checking and watering and of course it started raining immediately.  Finished streps and came inside.
Temp is coolish overcast and rainy, about 65F or so.

Bought a total of 7 2 piece mini-greenhouse germ boxes.  Seem to be relatively heavy duty.  They have ventilation holes which are adjustable at the top.  Bought from plantasjen 40kr/each.

NOT ready to go back to school... ugh.  First day is 25th (3 weeks from today) :(  Afraid of failure, just generally tired.. yuck.

Checking out a lot of ebooks and trying to get caught up on reading before school starts again.
