- Subject: [Market-farming] Germination chamber?
- Date: Wed, 14 May 2003 14:16:26 -0700
I accidentally discovered the wonders of
germinating seed in the dark.
We went to Brooklyn over the Mother's Day weekend
and in an effort to protect our plug trays from scorching greenhouse heat, we
put our newly seeded trays in a dark place. We returned two days later to
multiple germinations!
QUESTIONS:
1. Does anyone use a germination
chamber? If so, details, please? If not, what do you do "light-wise"
to germinate seed?
2. When I put newly seeded trays
in the greenhouse, am I shooting myself in the foot by not providing
darkness? And does that have an overall affect on the strength or vitality
of the maturing plant?
3. So, unless the catalog says
"light required" or "light aids germination", I should provide real darkness to
the germinating seeds?
Thanks,
Rose
