bedroom under lights due to it was to cold to move them to the greenhouse. On the first of February I was able to get them to the greenhouse and place them on the heat bed, noting they were starting to break ground. I'm just so excited to get these seeds!
Bottle #1 la X Yellow, 10 seeds, hard to peel -thick cork
Bottle #2 Schlossburg X Pink Aurea, 10 seeds, soft cork and easy to peel, 2 found empty
Bottle #3 deep red sang. hybrid X SV, 64 seeds, very slimy and was not able to peel due to the small nature in size and couldn't grip.
Bottle #4 la X 2, 10 seeds, hard cork with one tiny seed out of the 10
Bottle # 5 Yellow X 2, 2 seeds, soft slimy cork but easy to peel.
Bottle # 6 2 X Yellow, 3 seeds, easy to peel.
Bottle # 7 Yellow X pla, 10 seeds, these were the greatest to peel, seeds were starting to open.
Bottle # 8 2 X la, 20 seeds, largest of the seeds received and easy to peel.
I will try to take photos on a weekly bases as these grow in the greenhouse if weather permits. Now for the photos and allowing them to grow!! We have also put all photos at our PhotoBucket site under Ludger project:

March 13, 2013 outside after the roof is off, noticing some slowing in growth.
March 23, 2013 experiencing much cooler weather.
March 31, 2013......still much colder than normal.
April 16, 3013, frost a couple times and I'm getting worried that they maybe getting to cold due to the color some of them are turning. We are to hit 70s by this weekend so hopefully the cold is past us. I need one more set of leaves before moving them to the bottles. I have sent off a email to the hybridzer letting him know I have left the garden site where these were to be tested, so it's his call if I cull or continue this project this year.
I have been working hard on bumping all those seedlings up that now have their second set of leaves. I now have room in the older greenhouse for them so they aren't getting to much sun as they were in the Brug House with the roof plastic removed. They seem happier in there now and will be moving them back when I can get some of the eppies moved upward to cut the sun.
May 1, 2013 before the move and being bumped up.
