Rescued Seedlings on Show

See the wind tossed seedlings brought back to life in living color. And find out what I SHOULD have done to raise good quality seedlings.

Well, in the intervening hours since I blogged about my seed starting disaster last night, (Seedling Problems at Home!) the little abused seedlings perked up a bit overnight and don't look as bad as they did when I rescued them from the wind storm debacle, although they would look a lot better if my house offered slightly warmer air and a lot more bright light. (Basils don't like cold, now that I think about it, but that's what kind of seed I had at the time when I thought starting some seeds would be a smart thing to do. I personally wouldn't mind an updated heating system, speaking for myself now, either.) There is a photo of them (you can sort of see there is a gap in the middle where I couldn't find the rest of them outside) along with the kind of do it right seed starting directions I SHOULD have followed in my latest how-to article on Seed Starting. Do as I say, not as I do. Good thing the photo is so miniscule, it's hard to tell WHAT is going on in that seed pan. LOL
