Sprouts are Growing

I snapped a few photos to show where some of the seedlings I planted on March 24th are right now. On the first two plants, you can see the cotyledon or “seed leaves”. These embryonic leaves are in charge of powering the plant until the “true leaves” of the plant emerge.

This first shot is of some spinach. The spinach seedlings always look like they have mustaches to me.

Here is an arugula seedlings.

And finally, here’s a shot of a sugar pea plant.
