Not entirely sure John? Mine have very long thin stems but tiny leaves!!
I’m just going to prick them out if they make it so be it! I’ll get another batch sown at the weekend:thumb2:

Tall and spindly, Si, sounds as if insufficient light . Would have thought a change of position should see an improvement .
Pm sent .

Morning fellow green fingered moggelers....
Just sown a fresh batch of seeds, think I now where I went wrong so hopefully this batch will yield better result.


Meanwhile...have pricked out the best looking plants and have them sitting in some sunshine on the window sill. Fingers crossed

Si ...
They look alright, I'd get some saucers under the pots to take the odd drop of water.
I've put 3 pots in the consevatory and not watered them for a week ! , They were looking fine yesterday. Think I will take some photos this morning to show the 2 lots of plants, those in the greenhouse and the others above . That might be a help to you and Jim as to how they grow .

Ivan,
I don’t have individual saucers but the black base is watertight, I gave them a little drink yesterday after transplanting. I can see a change in leaf size already so might be looking up!

And seeing how fast yours and Jim's are growing I've just ordered some seeds to have a crack at it too, maybe I can start some in the next month.:smiling:

Tales from the greenhouse....
Si..... Good , I didn't realise the the base was holes less:thumb2: You will see in a how much I give them.
Fernando .... That is good news, there not hard to grow, just need a little care at first.

Earlier I said I would post some up date photos. The first ones are the group that was in the conservatory, I didn't water these for a week to see what the out come would be . IMG_3087.jpgB6.jpg

IMG_3089.JPG
I had filled the saucer up to the second line, in a matter of seconds the compost mix drew the water up leaving the line as in the photo. I've just looked at them now and they are dry again, it's been very hot today so tonight they will have another watering.

This next photo is one from the greenhouse group, all sown at the same time just before the 27/05/2018

To give you an idea Si this was the size of the plants on the 4/06/2018
