Last one! Thought I'd post an update on my #sweetpea 'Midnight Blue' plants which are really taking off at the moment! π
Whoo hoo Ian @bigemrg they look Brill I must post a pic of mine think only 2 havenβt taken so pleased with the result of putting them in the fridge thanks for the info π
@jadojado29 - They're not bad are they Suzie! Even most of my 'Pink Pearl' seeds have finally germinated too! π
I have got some dwarf sweet pea βLittle Sweetheartβ only got them the other day, Iβm soaking these ones Ian @bigemrg as think it would take to long in the fridge so fingers crossed Iβm not to late sowing them it does say up until May π
@jadojado29 - Think you'll be okay with them Suzie! Dad only sowed some last week after soaking seeds for a couple of days and his first seedlings popped up today! π
Thatβs good to know Ian @bigemrg thanks for info π
Looking really good Ianπ€
@godfreye - Thanks Enid! π
Woohoo! ππΌππΌ

Meanwhile, my Sweet Pea 'Midnight Blue' seedlings are rocketing away! π #sweetpea #seedling
@columbiariver - They look great don't they Laura? Can't believe how much they've grown in a week! π
@columbiariver - Me too, although there's a way to go yet! π
They look incredible!
Are they indoors or outdoors?
@jennlamaye - Thanks Jenn! At the moment they're in a propagator inside my growhouse, but they're getting too tall for the propagator so will be out of that soon! π
Nice! They look so full! Mine are lanky.
@jennlamaye - Once they've produced a couple of sets of leaves you can pinch the growing tip out and they should bush out more! π
Looking fabulous ππππ
@Keely - Thanks Keely, I'm really pleased with them! Hope I can keep them alive until it's time to plant them out! π
Looking very good π
Well they sure look like they are happy so you are clearly doing something right π

Good afternoon all! We have lift off! My #sweetpea 'Midnight Blue' seeds are on their way! π
@debrascott - Hehe! Copy that Debra! π
Looking good Ian. I tried the germinate them in the hot press method and forgot about them do mine are a bit leggy but Iβm sure it will sort itself out when I nip them out π
@jendren - Thanks Nicola! I'm sure yours will be fine once you've nipped them out! π
@jadojado29 - Here's my update Suzie! π
Going Great guns Ian @bigemrg just posted a pic of mine that I am doing on your advice π Oh and have been saving all my cardboard tubes after seeing your posts π
πππ Ian @bigemrg we keep crossing on our comments so funny π
@jadojado29 - Hehe! I've been posting on your pic while you've been posting on mine! π
ππ there you go again Ian @bigemrg π
@jadojado29 - Hahaha! πππ
Going to pick your brains Ian @bigemrg have you put mor than one seed in the tubes? And it looks like you have just filled the tubes and stood them on a tray? Last question have you put them in a greenhouse ? Only a couple of questions Ian Cheers π
@jadojado29 - Yes, I put two seeds per tube, about 1cm deep! Tubes were first stood in a layer compost to help keep them upright and then filled! They're inside a propagator to keep the environment moist and also inside my growhouse - but I'll be taking the lid off the propagator when they get a couple of inches tall and propping them up with a stick until they need pinching out! I'm also planning on planting the whole tube when the time comes! π
Good morning GTers! I'm having a #flashbackfriday moment remembering the #sweetpea blooms! This 'Midnight Blue' variety was much lighter than I'd expected but was still very pretty! Have a fab Friday everyone! π #blue
