Watching seedlings grow

Thought it would be nice to have a thread where we could all up load pics of our seedlings, sure it great seeing other forum members seedlings

It is really exciting seeing seedlings pop up and every time I sow seeds it is always brilliant seeing that they have germinated  

So here is the pics of mine

    Oooh, great idea!  I'm planting seeds for the first time this year; it's so exciting to see them popping up. Interesting to see what your Poached Egg plant and Morning Glory seedlings look like - I'll be planting some of those in the near future. They look interesting.

    Here are mine:

    Gerbera:

    Oh I am soooo jealous. I am just itching to start sowing but dare not do so until we get back from hols - they would either be dried out or beyond the pricking out stage.image

    I have to keep reminding myself there is still a lot of time until summer & I don't usually sow too much before the end of March.

    Really is great seeing others seedlings and what they look like 

    Tesni  I have Larkspur to sow - did you need to put them into somewhere cold first or do they just grow fine in indoor temps?

    GemmaJF your Lobelia look fab when did you sow yours?   I want to buy some seeds now,  When I sowed them a few years ago I pricked them all out individually did not know they are best in a group of seedlings

    Lyn  your  7' miscanthus look brill - with grass do you keep the grass altogether or plant on as individuals?  not sure what to do with mine,  like the little tiny seedling popping up in your lobelia

    Hi Gardengirl, no I didn't put the Larkspur seeds somewhere cold first - I just treated them the same as all the others.

    Sowed my lobelia on Valentine's Day, so they have had about one month. They do seem to do best in groups image

    Gardengirl, I have never grown the grass before, but I think you put them out separately. I must have a read up on them,

    Gemma, when you come to pot your tomato seedlings on, will you plant up to their shoulders?

    Your foxgloves are gorgeous, just ready to plant out in the Autumn.

    I don't know about potting on the tomatoes Lyn, should I plant them to the shoulders? It is my first time with them. All I really know so far is they seem to be growing very quickly and I bring them out of the porch at night to keep them warm.
