Purpurea and strawberries. Saw strawberries growing around a purp in situ in a picture before and decided to try it myself.

Really starting to see some growth now that the cold spell is gone. I'm impressed with the growth on the flava(tall) x evendine seedlings. Theyre getting big fast.

Wow! The increase in size of the new growth in the first and second pic it amazing! :o I guess dormancy made its toll again. BTW, nice pics as usual. :)

P.S. The moorei hasn't opened its flower yet! :lol: I'm guessing its our wether since we're having a drought but have been getting non-stop heavy rain and sometimes hail for the last month! I wish it gets better soon so my plants can resume growth!

Thank you Richard. The flava x evendine havent had a dormancy yet. Theyre 6 or 7 months old. They make all of my other seedlings that age look tiny. Going to be fun seeing what they look like in a few years. I'm especially excited about S moorei x black widow.

Great pictures. I'm surprised at the growth of your seedlings too. I need to get my purp seedlings hardened to full sun so I can grow them outside and maybe speed up their growth. Love the close ups of the dews.

I attribute the growth to being germinated and grown under a HPS for 24 hours a day. Even now I take some of the seedlings indoors when the sun goes down and put them under the HPS until the next morning. The plants seem to respond by growing very fast.

I also fertilize them every so often. I feed them neptunes harvest at 1/4 strength every couple of months or so.
