Guess the seedling

25 March 2011


Some mystery seedlings are starting to emerge in the greenhouse...

I decided that now I have more space in my new greenhouse that I'd just sow all of the dribs and drabs of seed packs I had regardless of use by dates, didn't even use seed compost just some really scraggy stuff I had. Normally I worry that they wont come up so end up buying a new pack of everything, but this year I've just sown masses of stuff!

This pack was unamed, just the white tin foil bit in my box - so not sure what they are but I emptied the entire pack into a seed tray... these came up pretty quick (about a week), could be something as boring as mustard (should I taste it?), really I just haven't a clue - anyone care for a guess? They are all different colours from acid green to purple and the first leaves are heart shaped each side - they do look a bit salad like.

Beets maybe?

It looks a bit early to tell but don't eat them till you are sure what they are!!

I think it is of the brassicus family, as you said it could be mustard, might turn out out to be radish :/

Have fun figuring it out, it will be tasty regardless :)
