The first lil' seedlings

Here are some of my first plantings.

In the middle are French marigolds -- they were planted around five weeks and have been growing quickly. On the right are more of the same marigolds, planted three weeks ago. On the left are seedlings planted one week ago that have yet to sprout -- daisies.

We're lucky because the majority of our windows are southern-facing, but we've been moving the plants around the house so they can get the most sunlight possible. I planted them all in Burpee seed-starting formula and then transplanted the first batch of marigolds into more seed-starting formula in peat pots. Not so sure I like the peat pots though, they seem to dry out quickly.
