Oh my. Here Karen's got me starting a thread! Thank you. I am more comfortable not getting Kevin's hybridizing forum so far off topic. Probably all I need to do is find the time to look at some of the other forums. This is a new experience for me -- I sort of just stumbled into Lynn and she roped me into "All Things Plants," so forgive me if I'm all over the map . I don't have a whole lot of computer time and I'm going to see what I can do!

I'll repeat my question here, (please feel free to blip out my last response on Kevin's hybridizing forum, Lynn. I was glad to see you'd gotten it back on topic -- but hadn't seen that you'd moved us bodily to a whole new forum!)

Should I be keeping my 6-month old seedlings damp all the time? They look quite small in comparison to the photos I'm seeing elsewhere. I've been letting them dry out in between watering (with a spray bottle) since I didn't want them to rot. I don't think I've lost any that way, but they aren't growing very fast, either.

I need to learn how to be a better photographer, also. I tried to get closeups of my seedlings yesterday and the pictures are much too blurry to be of use. I'll keep trying -- maybe I need to find myself a photography forum as well!

Still, thanks for all the help, and go with God.
