So a couple of weeks ago I decided to throw a very simple propagator together and plant my first seeds. So I scattered a few Drosera Capensis seeds and as you can see they are finally sprouting Image I know they're not the hardest CP's to grow, but I feel like a proud dad at the minute! If you zoom in you can see them sprouting all over the place. ImageImageImage

I feel like a little kid on Christmas morning when I see some freshly sprouted Green in a pot that wasn't there yesterday.

Good growing,
Mike
couldn't have put it any better. Literally feel like a child at Christmas too when ever I grow anything from seed and I start to see green. Such a feeling of achievement!

it's working nicely. Had to find a use for all the distilled water bottles I have building up! Haha. Yeah I've used little round takeaway tubs inside it to plant the seeds that work quite nicely which in turn have holes in the bottom sat on about half an inch of baked clay and water surrounded by sphagnum.
