Hi Folks,
Most of my seeds in the leccy prop have now germinated, should I know move them to a non heated windowsill one?

Yeah dont leave them in the prop or they get very leggy. I would suggest moving them off the windowsill at night. Gets really cold behind those curtains!

Once germinated, they just need to be kept frost free and bright unless it's something like chiilies ( what has germinated??)
The problem with germinating indoors in this eather is the cold chilly draught dropping down from the window pane. Normally I'd say take them off the windowsill at night to prevent this- but we have that chill too during the day at the moment.... away from the window/light and they'll tend to grow leggy and be weak adult plants.
If you're meaning to keep them in an unheated proper gator by the window, just make sure they don't get humid and rot.
It'll be interesting to see how you get on broadway

Hiya Nicos, can you explain what you mean re "unless it's something like chillies"? I'd have thought that your advice was very appropriate for chillies, they can't stand cold and need plenty of light to stop them going leggy.Originally posted by Nicos View Post

Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

Think Nicos was saying that if they're chillis, they'll need warmth too not just frost free and brightNever test the depth of the water with both feet
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....
Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

I was going to sow some chillies this week as I usually sow some at this time of year but am putting it off until after this cold snap, however long that might be!
