More seed starting

Quick update-- Last night I started more micro-blocks: 20 tomato (beefsteak and cherry), 20 tatsoi, 40 spinach (tyee), 8 broccoli, 20 beets (detroit red), and 12 lettuce (mix). I also started several chard seeds soaking in water. The micro-blocks are set on a tray over some rope-light with a thermostat set to 75 degrees F. Almost all of the second planting of peas have surfaced. The parsley and celery was finally moved to larger blocks. The container peas were rolled out of the garage at noon today for a couple of days in the sun until it gets cold again. I need to get some carrots planted outside as soon as I have time on a decent weather day. Peppers, basil, and marigolds should be started soon.
