I'm headed over to the rack to turn off the lights! I was of the impression that with greens, the longer the "day length" the better. I've always been in awe of the giant cabbages and other greens that are grown by our friends in the upper northern areas. I was going to leave the light on 24/7. They are sharing the shelf with onions and leeks.

You are spot on with the growth spurt and fertilizer. I literally spoon fed the flat with a very weak solution of blue stuff. Its been growing in Jiffy mix with excess watering for over two weeks now, so I thought they might need some nitrogen to keep from yellowing. The downside is that they may start growing too quickly before it is warm enough to plant out.

It will be interesting to see if Kath concurs.
