I must say I was a little (not much, just a little) skeptical about buying Gemmae as I have never grown anything this way. I went ahead and purchased a pack each of Pygmie Scorpioides, Paleaceo, and Roseana. Well, so far so good. I have one strike for the Paleaceo, a few or the Scorpioides and a few for the Roseana. I am stoked that these have come up so fast. I can't wait to start feeding these little gals.

Thank you. Yes, I did take a look at that but after I already had them in grow tent. And yes, those are the little seedling trays. They are what I use for all my starts. I think I should be OK. I usually just pop or scoop out the seedling/plant and they seem to come out fairly easily. The depth is about 2.5 inches deep. About how long before they get that deep? I will be sure to get them out before they get to that stage of growing and put in a larger, more permanent pot. I just ordered 2 new grow tents which will provide me with more room for growing different plants at different stages. I intend on using one for specialized growing. Meaning using different light setups at differing heights of the grow tent. I can keep the temp fairly consistent for each level. However, humidity is about the same throughout the entire grow tent. Trying to get more info on the Yescom lights, just waiting on a reply. Thanks for the heads up.

OK. I guess I should see about getting them out, albeit carefully. Thanks for the heads up. I am currently in the process of transitioning to square pots so will get to them next. Those plastic trays are pretty much disposable so I might just cut them out and transfer them.
