Great looking plants Shawn. So many seedlings. They certainly appear well organised. The first shot of the viking looks great.

Thanks Ken, If you go to google and do a search for "Neofarm" you will find a link to Khun Nong and K. Surisak's website. Look for the link for "Articles in English language" then look at the "Viking" articles. There is a specific article on "Grading of Vikings". He has already explained it much better than I could! The rest of their articles on Vikings are very interesting as well. Have fun, I've got to go start packing for Penang...YAHOOOOO!

Shawn,

Great looking plants and seedlings. I noticed you use coconut husk chips + perlite/pumice, and even have very young seedlings doing well in this mix. Question, do you sow your seeds directly onto this mix or have those young seedlings been transplanted into it? If they have been transplanted, then what soil mix do you use to sow/germinate seeds? Great looking plants once again. Later!
