"My young greens are generally doing pretty well. I planted the seeds in some pre-fertilized potting soil mixed with some perlite, so I don’t think I need to fertilize them yet. The seedlings in some cups look weaker than their brothers in the cups next to them, but I don’t see any system. Maybe, the devil in the drainage holes?
What makes me a bit sad is that all of my purple basils are not doing as great as the green ones, and that the chives have not produced a single seedling yet. I think I’ll try to rearrange the basil seedlings to let the weaker ones get more light."
