Hydroponics Tuesday

Strawberry Sproutlings
7/24/2007 10:54:04 PM

The little plants are doing pretty well.  Everything is still in the MegaGarden, as the sproutlings are still quite small.  Almost everything has become visible in their cubes; the only one that isn't yet visible is #12 (eggplant).

Here's a picture of the plants at the moment:

Also, good news regarding the strawberries... All of them are visible now, and they all look quite healthy.  Here's a closer look:
