Some of my seedlings have not done well. The Rosemary, Oregano, Chives and Sage have not shown any signs of growing. I've only got Parsley so far. And a little Basil- just four plants came up, one withered, one is stunted and only two are doing just okay. I planted another tray of them a week or so ago, hoping for better results.
Of the two Tomato trays I seeded- one of Cherry tomatoes, the other Heirloom Beefsteak- one didn't grow and the other lost its label. So I replanted another tray of each (not knowing what I've got). Happy to find the Cherry Tomatoes just coming up a few days ago, and the Beefsteak just began sprouting today. But then I put the new Cherry seedlings out in the sun too soon. When I saw they were wilting quickly I moved them into the shade- but then they were uncovered and when I came back after being gone for a bit, some critter had dug a hole in the tray and destroyed all my Cherry Tomato seedlings! I bet it was a squirrel. Restarted them yet again today.
So I've restarted quite a few herbs, and also the Coneflowers. I'm really disappointed these didn't grow yet- it's one of the plants I want most to grow this year, and so far I'm having no luck starting the seed. Maybe they'll do better if I plant them direct in the ground when the soil is warm enough outside.
