Seedlings Etc

First an update on the laptop. We decided to get a second opinion and yes the hard drive is cooked. The only option left to recover the data is to send the drive off to be rebuilt which can cost upwards of $1000 dollars. That certainly is not going to happen. The only good news is the second repair place had a used hard drive so the laptop will be fixed cheaply. I will still be going the Mac route though. The laptop will now be used as a second computer as we don't share well and it will still provide a portable option.

With that out of the way, I am going to update on the seedlings I have growing at the moment. Most things are doing quite well and soon will be accompanied by many more seedlings.

Brilliant & Giant Celeriac. I seeded quite thickly
and now have a forest. I must thin them soon.

The peppers. The sweet ones are doing quite well but the
hot ones are kind of lagging. The worst is Big Chile II, I
seeded 12 and have two. Other problematic peppers are the
Pustagold which are a sweet white pepper that turns red. I
seeded 24 and have none yet.

Red Celery. They have just started sprouting.

Siletz Tomato, in hopes of an early crop. It is looking
a little sickly. The other day I potted it up into fresh
soil with added perlite. I have also started dosing it with
the blue stuff.

One of the entirely to many onion pots. Most are doing well
except the Prince F1 from last years seed. I think they may
just be replaced with sets.

Lastly here is tonights din din. It was a beautiful today so I decided to grill some hamburgers. I was out of bun so I made my own with Granny's Beautiful Buns Recipe with poppy seeds. Other homemade things are the relish, raw sauce and dill pickles. In the glass is oven baked rosemary potato wedges.
