Seed Flats 2007/8

Today we did initial seed flats for the year. When we get remainder of the seeds, we’ll finish off the seed flats. Today we had help from Nanci, Sarah, John, David, and Wendy and her daughter. This year tried a new strategy of mapping the flats before the work day… worked OK, but with some of the seed missing this plan was not too great. Also new was measuring seed before starting flats, a good idea, but probably should have been done before this work day. All equipment was sanitized with 10% bleach solution. We are again doing alternate seed flats to be kept away from Nursery… in case of trouble. We also did set of pots of Milkweed. All told: 9 flats using 23 seed lots and 4x32 pots. See slide show.
