wow technology is wild. this little greenhouse has sprouted seedlings way ahead of schedule. the seed packets said 7-10 days for these seeds to germinate and now, 3 days later, there's already a crazy amount of growth happening.
in the last test I did the broccoli (labelled BR here) took 5 days to sprout and even it was a pretty precious but pathetic performance.
the main difference here is that these seedlings really feel like they have conviction. they're bursting with life instead of fighting for it. they're also much more erect and make me realize that round 1 really stood no chance.
the main issues with the previous batch were humidity, moisture, and light - all of which were much too low in the first test.
once all the seedlings come up I'll remove the top off the container, drop the room temp to 16c, give them 10 hours of LED light a day, and use a fan to give them some gentle air circulation that'll make them stronger and more ready to survive when they're transplanted outside.
