You also sent me your 2015 growout list which was outstanding, but I didn't see this one on the list I can't save seeds anymore which is why I contacted you about this one, which I really liked, so no seeds, but I do HAVE seeds now,labelled Black Striped Heart so look for a PM about that. Carolyn

Just Cabin Fever kickin' in, this time of year.
It must be nice that the fever doesn't effect Florida. |

Awesome list! Tons of colors. I bet those Lucid Gems will shine.
I have all 4 of these growing right now. Cherokee Tiger Black (chartreuse-yellow leaves) Mano (tasty productive little guy) Pit Viper, the F6 (looking forward to these) Utyonok (leaf curl bigtime, normal) |

I agree with Marsha. Just finished a 5 mile walk on the beach. No cabin fever here.

Here is a belated pic of my babies. The micros went into coco coir and the rest went into Root Riot peat cubes. I am going to stick with the Root Riot cubes because the germination was better and i had not a one helmet head in the bunch.

I changed my system a bit this year. I used to pot them up into 3.5 inch pots that fit 18 to a tray. I now use 3 inch pots that are stuck together and fit 32 to a tray. Both systems fit in a standard 10.5 inch by 21 inch seedling flat. Next year i will start all my seeds in Root Riot cubes in Roots Organic soil inside the flats. That way i will not have to pot them up.
