Huh.

My all-red potatoes are very pale pink inside, not red like the parent potatoes. I wonder what environmental conditions make for redness?

In spite of the fact that the radish seeds left outside had all germinated in 24h and were mocking the remaining seeds for weaklings, I've dragged the outdoor flat inside so that it doesn't freeze. I don't quite think they can tolerate frost until they've started photosynthesizing and are able to manufacture sugars.

Anyway. Good Shabbos to those who celebrate!

At a guess, you need more iron in the soil.

Hmm. About half the soil in the potato planters was compost, so I thought I wouldn't have to worry about things like that.
