Back home and the basement plants have grown quite a bit while unattended — a little leggy from reaching for light, but they’ve held up fine and should even out once they get proper daylight.

Meanwhile, the cabbage that moved out to the greenhouse a good month ago is doing exactly what it should: bulking up steadily in its buckets, no drama.

Nice to see both ends of the process working — plants that had to wait it out indoors, and plants that got an early jump outside, both catching up to where they need to be.
