OMG, my peppers have started to sprout!

When I left for church this morning, at 10:15am, nothing was visible above the soil. When I returned home at 1:00pm, there were eight visible sprouts! They are all from my first batch of seventeen seeds, planted on March 15, so they broke the surface in two weeks exactly.

I only photographed four of them, because the others are just tiny arches of ultra-pale green stem and thus don't show up well at the resolution my camera can manage. I may take another set of photos this evening if things have noticeably progressed.

tiny pepper sprout, omg!

sprout in gray stoneware teacup
and another!

sprout in off-white plastic pot
and a third, which probably broke the soil first judging by how close its leaves are to being uncrumpled

sprout in salmon ceramic pot
and a fourth, which hasn't quite managed to shed its seed coat yet, d'aww :-)

Eeeeee, peppers! *dances*
