I fired up the grow room today with a couple of small changes. First I lowered the growing table down as the pumpkins were getting to hot under the light and getting a little leaf scorch. I also lowered the temp down to about 21C (72F) which is about right for starting the onions. I’ve sowed 40 seeds today watering them in with some Captan fungicide; this should give me plenty of plants to select for my final dozen or so. Also in the photo you can see a watering can in the grow room; there’s no point in keeping your seedlings nice and warm only to give them an ice bath every time you water.
