As the seedlings are growing into larger healthier plants now, they are also requiring more water and I am checking them more frequently for disease and any other issues. With warmer days and fans blowing on them all day and night they tend to dry up faster as well. This year I tried something new and added some vermiculite to my seed mixture and this has helped hold moisture levels and they aren’t requiring as much water. This makes things so much better as it frees up my time to spend more on garden prep work.Sunday, April 30, 2023
