About 6-7 weeks since sprouting, s. torvum is now kinda starting to look like it might actually grow. We also had some sun which helped.

The second batch of seeds (for the actual grafting, not for a trial) germinated significantly slower, at around 10 days for the first ones, and I'm not sure why, I did the same things, still a decent time at least.

In one week is the time to start the eggplant seeds as well, and the pepper seeds. As scion for peppers I will be using TAM Jalapeno and Aji Criollo. This last one is a fantastic pepper with very little heat and very very good flavor for making powder, but the plants are always suffering from something, yellowish, the plant grows very poorly the first months, it definitely needs something special about the soil, so I'm hoping I can remedy that with grafting.
