Sissy- I'm jealous- I started a tray of creeping thyme yesterday and nothing yet. Do you have your trays heated?

 

[sissy]

Nope actually those trays are from those mini hot dogs wrapped in dough in the freezer section (hebrew national one )and they are just sitting in my front living room window .I have a spray bottle of water .i was going to wrap them in plastic wrap but never got the chance too .I guess the dollar store seeds really sprout .I know I was shocked .I did not expect much

[sissy]

Yeh I was surprised when she showed up and really enjoyed the rest but kept thinking in my mind what to do with the other the other pumps odd sized outlet .I could not find a hose to fit the other new pump .But had hoses I was fiddling with and finally got it all to fit the sump pump hose and actually fit over the 1000 gph pump outlet .So now both pumps are going and hopefully tomorrow will figure the rest out .Want to get that filter going .

 

[j.w]

Well glad you had a nice visit..............you can go back to ponding again tomorrow

 

[sissy]

can't wait .But I wait until the sun gets to the pond to go out and work on it .Wind has been rather strong here lately and chilly if you stand in the shade with that wind also
