Tom's Seed Experiment

Last week I prepared my seed containers, got some potting mix, dampened it down with a little water, then planted my seeds. I chose to plant flower seeds: Californian Poppies, Cosmos, and Alyssum (which I can't pronounce - its a bit tricky). I was interested that each type of seed looked very different. I can't wait to see how they grow.

I also prepared a jar with damp cotton wool and put a broad bean seed into it.

Both containers are near a window so they get some good sunlight and warmth during the day.

Update - 8th Nov. 2012 - the bean seed has now produced a shoot.
