Friday SproutWatch

The seeds have been planted for five days.  Let's see what's sprouted on today's SproutWatch!

Tray 1: four cosmos, 1 lilliput zinnia, and 1 thumbelina zinnia have sprouted.  Taking the lid off the Jiffy greenhouse so I don't get mold.
Tray 2: nothing yet
Tray 3: 1 peppermint stick zinnia

Square trays: 3 harlequin marigolds, 1 red marietta marigold

Morning glory cups:
4 "pale seed" purpurea morning glories
4 Heavenly Blue MG
5 random purpurea MG (3 of these have darker seed leaves and stems, while 2 of these are green - I wonder if the darker ones are going to produce darker flowers?)

So far, pretty good results.  I'll probably be starting another tray or two of seeds this weekend, since my new seeds just arrived in the mail.  It's going to be a good year for flowers! :)
