Top row: 796 Hoffman, 2-671 Hoffman, & 3-344 Hoffman plants.

Bottom row: 322 Zaychkowsky, 522 Zaychkowsky, 715.1 Wolf, 1086 Carlson-Petersen, 1354 Checkon, & 1432 Carlson-Petersen.

After a very slow start, I finally got 100% germination....16 out of 16 counting the plants in the veggie garden. Hindsite says it certainly would have been better to start them inside this year instead of direct seeding them. The seeds normally emerge 4 to 7 days after planting, but this year the earliest was 6 days and the last 3 showed up after 13 days. I'm way behind...hopefully some warmer weather will get the plants to take off soon. Some hail damage visible in some of the cots, but nothing serious.
