About a year ago we recruited 5 of you to be our at home testers, agreeing to be the guinea pigs for new and up-and-coming plant pods we are considering launching! Our testers grow potential new plant pods around the world in different climates and locations with different light and temperature levels, helping us find the plants that can withstand any environmental conditions and be brought to all of you promising the highest yield and growth. With their help, we have tested and launched Rosemary and Dill. Also, Black Pansy and Piri Piri chili will be available soon!
In exchange for being testers, they post weekly updates with photos in our Gardeners forum so all of you can see and share any helpful tips and see what new plant we are testing!
So please, give a warm welcome to our 5 plant testers who are all currently testing Plain Parsley- a plant you have been asking for! Plain parsley is a widely cultivated culinary herb that is packed with vitamins C, B, 12, K, and A.
Our testers will be sharing their weekly photos and updates in the comments of this post, so if you’re interested in staying up to date, check back!
Greetings to everyone from Portugal.
Its Day 4 now, (planted on the 10.10.2018) and i am excited to test new seeds again.
There are still no developments, but its still early.
Just popped the capsules into the click and grow last Friday (12 October 2018). One thing I noticed is that there are so many seeds in a capsule!
I checked on the capsules today (Day 4), no sign of germination so far. But I did see some white fluff forming, which is probably some mould from the moisture. So I’ve taken the dome off one of them to see if it’ll improve.
Fall is taking its time in Italy…it is still 24 C degrees!
Here is day 3 of the parsley, it will take few weeks to germinate but I’m thinking already on how I can use it in my cooking recipes =)
Its Day 11, and they have germinated.
The middle capsule already has leaves coming out, but the other two i think they just need one more day or two to start to show (they have some movement but its slower than the middle one).
At Day 10 (22 Oct 2018) and we have sign of life! There was no sign of germination when I left the office on Friday and it was so nice to come back on Monday to see tiny leaves!
However, there is still some mould issues - slight white fluff and cluster of gray matter on the ungerminated seeds. I’m taking the dome off to see if they’ll improve.
