Hell No. I tried that last yr. and selling on craigslist. I sold a bunch but it took up too much time for a couple of dollars per plant. If you got buyers lined up that is a different story.

[Brown Thumb]

Good luck.

Thank You I think I need a lot of it.
Took the snowmobile down to check out the soccer / Baccy field.
6 to 10 inches of snow ice. What was I thinking. Over 750 sprouts in cups and now I got to get another cheap Greenhouse.

I don't know where I would put that many cups. Lol.

Man, that snow sure looks good. It was 76F here today. Short sleeve shirts are such a pain.

I had some white fluffy mold growing so last night I blasted them with Hydrogen Peroxide.
Damm killed the mold and the freaking starts really look Good and bigger Today. I think they love this stuff.

You can see it on Your post yesterday. Looks good. Say I have an old school starter that stops that. My Gramps showed Me that for tobacco that works great.He always had some on hand for starting seed.
Dissolve 1 teaspoon each of Epsom salts, Salpetre, and Baking powder (NOT SODA) along with1/4 teaspoon houshold ammonia in a gallon of tap water. Mix it up till desolved. Give em a small squirt and use every 5 or 6 weeks on them.

I tryed Baking Soda first that did nothing.. Thanks for the info,

I've noticed in half of one of my trays I've got some green mold. I was gonna pull them out & refresh them as soon as I get some more soil. The ones that have this in them generally are more wet than the others (greenhouse tops). The ends seem to drip the water down into the tray and right into the cells. I'm gonna give the hydrogen peroxide a shot first.

I'm using the Miracle grow starter and then the same stuff your using there (coconut). The coconut stuff is on top. It does work great. I mixed just a little Oak ash in with the Miracle Grow starter then the coconut shavings on top. The roots on these guys are long. Some at about an inch and a half long. But where the mold is, is where I've got the Miracle Grow Soil.

Those cups are surrounding my trays too. I put all the extra's in them for later.

Be sure it's mold. Since it's just on the Miracle Gro soil, it could just be the nutrients in the soil. Your miracle gro comes fortified with fertilizer. I have white stuff on top of mine but it's not mold and no problem.

It might just be algae, I get it every year with no problems.
