After my mold issue in November I kind of neglected my test batch and left them outside on the balcony. Just 15 days ago I discovered that they had multiplied and some were even starting the first true leaves (I guess the mold died during winter cold or due to the cinnamon I sprinkled on...).

The one on the upper left close to the tag was the first one to have true leaves. Look how "fuzzy" it is... Big Grin

Others are just starting their first set of true leaves.

and some are already showing some colour.

My other seeds sown beginning of March, after keeping them in the fridge since November last year, are just starting to germinate. This time I used less sand in the soil mix and left away the sand cover I applied the first time.

I keep them all together on our balcony in my DIY mini grow tunnel which I will later on open on the sides and use as a rain shelter for the seedlings as long as they are so small.
