As you can see, some of the sprouts are getting tall enough that I tied them to makeshift popsicle stick stakes.

Others are smaller,

smaller pepper sprout



or smaller yet,

tiny pepper sprout



or still utterly tiny (with no visible change from last week, in the case of the poor last, slowest sprout, alas!).

the tiniest pepper sproutling of all



And it looks like the lopsided sprout, which had balanced itself out at long last, may be fixing to grow a third leaf rather than a third-and-fourth pair, and thus unbalance itself once again. I follow its progress with great bemusement.

Oh yeah, and the onion is doing all right too, though I keep having to go scoop dirt back into the pot every two or three days. I am getting really annoyed with the local wildlife (or domestic life, as the case may be). *frowns with equal disapproval at squirrels and cats*
