Green onions win!

I have been carefully monitoring my vegetable seedlings this week, as this is my first experience with such a project. Few instructions came with the seedling starter trays I purchased, so I turned to the internet for (what turned out to be scant) advice. How wet do I keep them? Should the covers always be steamy, or is the presence of water droplets enough? I turned to my mother at one point and she advised me that the steamy look is not necessary. She further advised me to not keep the seedlings too wet once they start to sprout, as they mold very easily.

So every day I check on the trays for moisture content, mold, and signs of life. And today is the day! Today a whole section of green onions decided to poke their heads out and take a look around the first time. Welcome to the world, onions.



Upon closer inspection I noticed that several of the tomato eggs are beginning to hatch as well.



The responsibilities of veggie motherhood are upon me. I haven't even prepared a bed for the new babies yet! I hope I don't run out of time.
