I'll put on my list of things i probably won't get to.
It will be fine my leeks survived out all winter.
It will just be stunted a bit if it gets a bit of frost damage.
Fertilize in spring

I did the same with the last of my carrots last week too lolPulled some late summer carrots that I forgot about and the rodents haven’t found…yet.
Late start ? Seems early to me . ? Or maybe I start mine late ?Things are off to a (late) start, but peppers and onions are popping, and sweet potatoes are starting to grow legs
I guess it depends where you, but I’d like to be transplanting onions and leeks(which only were seeded tonight cause I forgot about them) in a month or so. And sweet potatoes and peppers take so damn long I don’t think you can start too early with themLate start ? Seems early to me . ? Or maybe I start mine late ?
Never had a lot of luck with peppers maybe I need to get them going sooner then later then.I guess it depends where you, but I’d like to be transplanting onions and leeks(which only were seeded tonight cause I forgot about them) in a month or so.

I’d start now. I would have 2 weeks ago, but I was out of town. Get a heat source near/under your seedling tray for best germination results, and don’t let them get cold.Never had a lot of luck with peppers maybe I need to get them going sooner then later then.
All of mine withered and died three times! I don't think there was enough airflow in the mech room. Plus perhaps too many hot and cold swings being next to the boiler. I'm going to start over when I'm back from holiday next week.I’d start now. I would have 2 weeks ago, but I was out of town.

Going to be getting peppers, tomatoes, spring veg like radishes, kale, peas, and lettuce started in the next week or so
Dang, that sucks. Do you keep them covered in the tray? How much natural light do they get? Temp swings will def stress them out,All of mine withered and died three times!

No I uncovered them once they sprouted. They would get about 2.5" tall and have 4-6 real leaves on them and then just fall over. No natural light, just the grow lights.Dang, that sucks. Do you keep them covered in the tray? How much natural light do they get? Temp swings will def stress them out,

I was using the biodegradable pots. Maybe they were too big because as I tried to bottom water it always seemed like the soil at the top dried out. So I'd end up topping up from above here and there. The lights were about there.Bottom water only, and not too much, keep lights within a few inches of upper leaves and adjust as they grow.
Hmm, weird that they were getting that big and dying. Could be too much or not enough water, temp swings or not enough light. Hard to say, I’m no expertNo I uncovered them once they sprouted.
