Torrance update


     List
  Well here is the EAST Torrance report, Bob Troy is farther to the West so
I will have to be the East grower.
  After starting my 791 Glasier seeds and seeing the results I panicked and
put them within two inches of a Reptile Vita light (florescent tube) Wow did
that save the day. It took the cotlydons from sickly yellow to emerald green.
I am so excited !! They are in the mound and the first true leaf is coming
out nicely. Appears to have no adverse affects from the holes in the dicots,
even though the one with the least damage is much more robust.
  I am sorry to announce that I am a terrible seed germinator. I have ruined
several seeds that were to go in mound #1 and I am just "sick". I have ruined
two 1064.5 Needhams, one 700 est Vanlderstine, one 895 Hester and one 1140
Stelts(skinny seed) I was really looking foreword to growing the 1064.5's Wow
I feel bad!!!
 Here are the "panic seeds" the seeds I started the second I felt something
was wrong. 901 Needham, 642 Glasier, 826.5 Hester, 705 Mettler which have not
germinated yet BUT TWO HAVE 547 Kournikakis "00" and 986 Hester* "00". They
both are popping out of the ground as I speak and will hopefully be in the
mound Thursday morning !!!! I sure hope nothing else tries to slow me down
"I'M READY"
 All my practice seeds popped without ANY problem I guess I just fell under
pressure !!!
 I will keep you all informed as soon as I get any more info !!!!!
Take care and grow em BIG
