Under the Lights

I'll probably be starting some more seeds in the next few days so I figured it was time for an update on what I already have growing from seed.

Above you can see a crowded corner.  In the back are my Tiny Tim Tomatoes.  The largest one already has flower stalks and they started opening today.  I'm super excited to have indoor-extra-early tomatoes!  On the right you can see the Brugmansia (37 Days since sowing).  They're growing very well and I think the two plants already need to be separated.  There is a third tiny one but it probably won't grow very much until the others are removed because of the constant shade.  I love the toothed leaves! 

In the front you can see a little Lantana that was started from seed.  It keeps drying out so it doesn't look to happy right now.  The Purple Orach has been growing very slowly.  I don't know if this is typical because I've never grown it before.

Above you can see 9 Datura "Purple Blackcurrent Swirl".  Only one didn't germinate so it was a good batch of seeds.  They are growing extremely quickly and already have long roots out of the bottom.  I think I need to transplant them soon because they are definitely overshadowing each other.

Finally you can see a picture of the leeks (with Adenium behind).  Many are touching the fluorescent tubes so I think I might have to give them a bit of a hair cut.  Does half the height seem reasonable?

Veggie and Brugmansia (23 Days) Seedlings

Latest seedling updates from the exciting plant village of Growlightia!

Some of the Brugmansia leaves have a white colour, is this normal?  I know I should remove the seed shell on the third one but I'm afraid of hurting it (of course it looks really really sad).  When should I move them to their own pots?  It's been about 23 days since sowing.

EDIT:  I felt bad and performed emergency open seed surgery.  It's in stable condition but there was some damage to the surrounding tissue.  Nelly will probably pull through but any and all support is greatly appreciated. 

I've never grown Leeks before.  The germination rate seems to be in excess of 85% so far.  Should I thin them to one per cell or is it fine to grow a few together?

Everyone want to call this 'Purple Spinach' but it's not related to spinach and that really bothers me.  It should be called Purple Orach so that is how I will refer to it.  I'm going to plant the seeds outside in the spring but was really curious about them so started a few early.

I thought they were unhealthily lanky but I searched for some images of seedlings and the few that I saw looked like this.  Really odd.  I'll keep an eye on them but I'm less concerned.  All the seeds sprouted but one is green.  I secretly hate that one.

Here are the Tiny Tim Tomatoes at about 3 weeks old.  I've removed three or four seedlings already.  I'll probably end up leaving three plants in the pot.  One of them decided to be yellowy-white.  Could this be a light or fertilizer thing?  I'm must wondering because of the Brugmansia.  I put a garlic clove in the middle because... *cough*

Supposedly I'll get the first fruit in three weeks.  I think I need to step up the fertilizer and maybe toss in some more dirt so they can form more roots.
