Produce
We started germinating our first run of produce about a week and a half ago. The tomatoes germinated in 3 - 4 days but the peppers took about 7. The peppers still haven't completed their germination so that haven't been moved to the sprout growing location. A few Roma tomatoes were left in a warmer location while we waited for some peppers that were in the same set to germinate and wow did they get leggy. The other tomatoes are short, healthy and look great next to the few long spindly ones. We'll start germinating our next set of produce in about another week. That will give us a couple of sets to hopefully extend our harvest, although here in NW Iowa the season is short enough that we expect plants like tomatoes to still be producing when frost takes them.
