Transplanting and Thinning

The babies needed to be thinned so I salvaged the strong ones for the AP system and composted the ones that weren’t doing so good. Then left the strong ones in a staggered position in the planters and top-dressed with about 1/4 inch of vermi-compost.

The next step is foliar feeding with compost tea. Also it is definitely evident that I need more light on them.

Seedlings can be gently pulled out with a fork in order to transplant.

I put the seedlings under a wet paper towel until ready to transplant.
