Re: Beets in a cup update
I missed the purpose of this project. To see how the seeds germinated? followed by "I can't throw them out!" ?
Re: Beets in a cup update
The project was: Plant 10 cups and see how many germinated. 8 out of 10 germinated = 80% germination. It was just a test.sanderson wrote:I missed the purpose of this project. To see how the seeds germinated? followed by "I can't throw them out!" ?

A few days ago, I harvested two small yellow Zucchini and some Arugula from those seed.

Re: Beets in a cup update
I had leftover tomato, squash, etc. starts from indoor sowing. I planted the tomatoes in one of the compost bins and the squash in a pile of stuff (clumps of sod, soil, weeds, trimmed plants) that was sitting on the ground to be sorted and used if possible for composting. These things are all flourishing. It's amazing where things will grow.
