Hello,
A very ambitious setup indeed. Allready separated the seedlings?
And lots of different species. With the open setup I guess you need check your seedling very often?

I am setting up each year a table with 5 fluorescent lamps under the tabletop.
With the drapery closed the kitchen is still inhabitable. To keep the temperature down a little, and also to try to keep the sciara flies away, I keep two fans running (not visible in the pic).
The flies is for me the greatest threat to the seedlings.

It would be nice to see the status of your seedlings in a couple of months!

All the best,
Torbjörn

Thord, I know they are small.

Torbjörn, The Jatropha podagrica I re-potted into a bigger and deeper pot. About checking pots often, Yes often. I hit the power switch on at 7am and at lunch time look them over and shut the switch off at 11pm. Ya I check them a lot.

I'll re post in the middle of spring, hopefully fattening them up a little.
