Seedlings are babies!

December 1st
搞不清楚自己到底買了哪種豆子,可能是短蔓四季豆吧。一發芽後,就猛長,讓很容易讓人有成就感。愛變怪的個性驅使著自己硬要用泥土和堆肥和著來移植豆子,種苗店都只用鬆鬆的培陽土。人家這樣做一定有他的道理,我有預感自己會吃苦頭,不過還是做了。
 Got a bag of soil from HT garden for transplanting beans.

 Got some compost from PDC garden. 
去年上完 PDC後,就開始在我家的田裡挖了一個banana circle,中間的堆肥區有兩公尺深耶(只靠一個小鋤頭喔)!經過十個月的堆肥之後,我想應該已經發酵完全了吧。拿一些給移植後的豆子補一補。
 This compost has been fermented for more than 10 months.
Mixed soil from HT garden and compost from PDC garden. Even though I saw nursery shops only used compost mix to transplant seedlings, I still wanted to know if seedlings in the soil could grow well.

 Beans grew so fast. Stems were also too big for the smaller cell tray.
  

December 2nd Nursery
It was very windy and cold. Some seedlings, especially lettuce, dried and almost died.

December 3rd Nursery
All trays were moved to the living room.


 Seedlings of lettuce were getting better but some still couldn't stand up.
 I kept sprayed lots of water in a hope to save all seedlings.

Beans looked okay.
