Good your seeds started yet Canadians and others in Northern climes?

@ottaross
Yup. 👍 Grow lights in the basement.
@KarenDorman I've got an east window that'll get me started, but will probably need some lights in a few weeks too.
@ottaross
The basement is cool though, so some things didn't sprout- we're thinking about heating mats for next year.

@KarenDorman Not a bad idea. Alternatively if there a spot near a heating duct that can maybe be exploited?

Set a cat loose and see where they prefer sleeping, that'll be your warm spots. 🤣

@ottaross I have my chili seeds started, they wont go out until late may/early june.
I'm hoping to direct sow some monks cress soon though.

In Denmark btw

@YukiSora Summer is sounding spicy. 😃

I looked up Monks Cress, which I hadn't heard of before and see it's what we call nasturtium. Nice to learn a new name - thx!

I picked up some of that this year too, so will start some of that in early May maybe, and sow some directly too.

@ottaross No problem!

It absolutely is gonna be spicy! Fireflame, Jalapeno and Thai chili. It's a bit of an experiment though, there's no greenhouse for them.
I don't expect too much, but hopefully we'll be able to harvest some green chilis in the end!
