viability VIII(b)

should any of the 2010 seeds germinate they will join the seven plants already under the lights...five coming form native seed search seed from 2012 and two from seed i "finished" in the basement last autumn..for now they are all doing well and are all in different stages of development...from still "greening" stalks ( second photo ) to plants deploying second leaves ( third photo )..the plant in the bottom photo looks strikingly like a maize seedling...there's a relationship..and an academic argument about maize parentage...thankfully i am not an academic and so am free to grow plants without the attendant conflict.
