Mine stay in a heated propagator indoors but this would not be necessary if the weather is very warm. This method works well for me. I hope yours germinate soon :-)easygardenerhttp://greenforks.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6977963402204848415.post-72982753172978953902010-03-27T16:46:31.478+08:002010-03-27T16:46:31.478+08:00Try peat pots, most things in the curcurbit family...Try peat pots, most things in the curcurbit family dislike transplanting, and use bottom heat, mine love it and usually are up pretty quick. Bottom heat lets you get the soil warm without cooking the whole house!<br /><br />And good for you to not give up and to keep trying new ways!Lannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018584509455303394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6977963402204848415.post-43056758113398996912010-03-27T12:18:18.484+08:002010-03-27T12:18:18.484+08:00Cath J

Wendy ...Cath J <br />Ribbit <br />jaz@octoberfarm <br />Stephanie <br />Wendy <br /><br />this batch of cucumber seeds is our first. We will give another go. As suggested, we may put it in a warmer place with adequate light.<br /><br />We failed too with lettuce after a couple of attempts. As wendy said, we do have a range of days.<br /><br />~bangchik<br />Putrajaya, MalaysiaBangchik and Kakdahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12539360678677230463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6977963402204848415.post-20237205357148758722010-03-27T08:54:43.089+08:002010-03-27T08:54:43.089+08:00well, that sure gives you a RANGE of days!
