wild potatoes round II

the cold start-up for wild potatoes downstairs under the lights is a pretty clear failure...so i have decided to try one of those jiffy tomato starting trays and some natural light to see if that has any impact...it took about four cups of water and about ten minutes to expand the peat pellets to a workable size and then the issues began...anyone who reads this blog with any sort of regularity is aware that i am more than capable of making multiple typos and even deleting entire sentence phrases making deciphering a train of thought here a challenge at times...chalk it up to extremely clumsy stubby pudgy uncooperative fingers...these are really tiny seeds folks...i was forced to procure a set of tweezers to have even the remotest possibility of any control...i managed to retrieve seeds from the small baggies and plant them in each pellet without any horrible disasters but was hard pressed to do so...after planting and cleaning up i put the lid on the tray and set it in what passes for a sunny spot on this overcast day...within ten minutes or so condensation had already begun to form on the inside of the lid...hopefully this cookery will be a success and i will be able to show you sprouts soon...more as it comes up.
