I didn't think that the colour and legginess of the seedlings were normal. So, on the advice of fellow Ontario grower, shiznit, I set up a grow light. It already appears to be greening up the plants a little. Maybe it will even coax out that last seedling. If it comes out today, it would have the same birthday as me, April 19th :-)
We had an extra 18" fluorescent fixture around. So, I bought a bulb for it a couple of weeks ago. I set it up on a timer that we had laying around. We actually have another fixture. So, I may buy another bulb to double the light. But, that one is older and requires you to hold on the button as the light charges up. So, I don't think it would work with the timer. Whereas the newer one that I am using uses a rocker switch.
Thankfully my mom keeps around a lot of random shelving. I found one of them that fit over the cooler quite well. Also thankfully, I don't think that my mom reads my BP.com diary. So, she won't notice right away that it is gone.
