Quickie Update:

I have successfully germinated my 2nd HP13 bean. It cracked and grew a nice tip in less than 24 hours. (Holds breath...) I've started her in a peat moss pot to make the transplant a bit smoother, just seems easier to rip away a pot then it does removing the rootball from the pot itself. I'm hoping this will cause less stress and less stress is a good thing. Don't worry, I'm not going to transplant it pot and all like the package suggests because I've learned that peat pots can cause root-boundedness and stunt growth. Tonight I'll have pics. Peace.
