Sounds like a good system, but I wonder if it will work in my case. I have
75 seeds planted in a five inch pot. About 40 have germinated, with more
coming. I might just give them another week.

Oh it grows like a weed here too, probably because I use plenty of lime.
SILK DEGREES has the same problem. It's growth rate keeps just ahead of it's
death rate.
BAHLOO performs better, but is planted in a different area. I suspect I am
still having problems with fungal spores from some sawdust mulch I put down
a few years ago.
Cheers, Jan
