I just tossed our little growing chamber into a windowsill on a tabl and let them do their thing, after someone mentioned ours looked a lil light starved just tossed the cover I was covering them with and just mist them once a day or so

Rivera, did you do this for recent sows? My D. capensis seeds were sown at the end of summer so it was still warm enough. Now the daily highs are around mid 60s if that. Perhaps I'll go with the windowsill trick to help with warmth. It'll be interesting to see how they fair.

you picked a beauty! i would not have passed on that one. congrats!

yep those were for the recently sowed seeds I just started feeding them also!! I also figured out why the 3rd plants aren't springing up didn't even think about it and tossed them in last minute. the Intemedia seeds need cold stratification luckily I only threw like 1/10th of the massive pile of seeds in there anyway!
