Anyone else...?

[Gwen11ian]

Anyone else check on their freshly sow / freshly germinated seedlings about fifty times a day?!!? I checked them at least fifteen times this morning before work.. and had a good stare for at least ten minutes while I ate my cereal (standing up, so I could see better).

If only I could apply to my work the effort I spend on these little tiny wonders (as you can guess.. I'm clearly not apply myself one bit at the moment!).

Another one here! I look at them, turn them round, count them. I always feel I've been restrained and only sown 4 toms in the pot then I look and find 6 seedlings - the ones I put in 'for good luck' or 'just in case' - you'd think I'd know better by now!

Oh yep me too. Causes great hilarity round here

Me too. We had the man round the other day to change the elec meter...and I was having a mental breakdown at the time and as I had no electricity for a half an hour or so I just stood and started at the seedling tray trying to calm down.

It was 10 mins though before I realised that 2 cayennes had popped their heads through.

I must have been really really angry to not even notice for so long.

I keep looking at my newly sprouted beans...they're so lovely when they are so little.





I clearly need to get out more - I used to spend my days ogling young male students and now they just pass me by.

Yep I am always popping into spare room to check my seeds been in there sorting out a bit so I can get more trays on the shelves. It was acraft room but as I dont do much of that now I have turned it into a seeds room. lol

Such a comfort to know I'm not the only one.

I now wonder if they have nice dads!

Wait till teenage boys catch you muttering at your seeds to encourge them. Then you will know the meaning of silly

[SlugLobber]

I'm sure my OH thinks I have a problem. I give him an update everytime he walks through the door.

[allotmentlady]

i talk to them, stare at them, sing to them...............plead with them,,,,,,keep the kids away from them......

[sharonr]

Everytime I walk through the dinning room (every five minutes) I have to check them on the windowsill. I can`t belive how fast they have germinated. The only problem now is I want to get them in the garden and it`s not time yet.

Yous lot are so funny, you make me giggle (yeah I'm a seed oggler too!)

I know the feeling sharon, its too cold for them i wish its was warmer.......

[selfraising]

I'm a seed voyeur too! It's like I'm willing them to pop their heads up. Then I get so excited when they do, I have to tell everyone and they look at me as if I've gone totally insane (maybe I have) The lid gets lifted off the propagator at least half a dozen times a day and I'm sure that's not helping germination. I think I might join seed sighting anonymous!!
