RE: The 6th and Last Seed Starting - May 20, 2023 @goldenoakfarm

in HiveGarden2 years ago

I saw the temps you were getting in the green house. Don't know if you know but different plants prefer widely different temps to germinate. Celery likes it cool, 55-65F. Pumpkins and squashes between 75 - 85F. If you get outside the preferred perimeters, germination drops fast, on either end.

Sort:  

I have to get thermometers set at the various heights so I can see the gradient from top hottest to coolest bottom in the greenhouse. Right now I have the thermometer hanging at mid level. I have my celery outside but the emitters are off center with the holes so they weren't getting good water to the seeds when I had them planted when temps were prime.
