I think some lettuce needs light to germinate, but I haven't found it the case for the majority of what I grow.Ribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01460673212389110633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-66423522835854399872010-01-11T10:34:41.561-05:002010-01-11T10:34:41.561-05:00I envy the fact that you can transplant these crop...I envy the fact that you can transplant these crops so early. It will be a few more weeks before we start sowing anything here. <br /><br />Do you generally germinate your plants in the dark? I know some people always start under glow lights but I never understood how that would help if the seed is not exposed to the light.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09303344546714641616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-89894347261887915382010-01-11T00:26:50.518-05:002010-01-11T00:26:50.518-05:00I started seeds today also.
