Notes

Starting both red and green shiso again. The last three attempts have failed with the seedlings getting to about 3/4" before keeling over. I think I am going to try the newly-received airstone setup this time.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
