Seedling update

| It has been three weeks since most of these seeds were started. |
 |
| The lovage is starting to show true-leaves. |
It is not all skittles-and-cream soda |
| Something is impacting the older Stupice tomato leaves |

These bumps look like aphids but don't move when I scrape them. Puzzling. I am going to treat it as if it was due to excessive fertilizer (note the purple) and put them on a well-water diet for a week.
And...we lost a duck today. They found a way out of the garden enclosure and were waddling around the yard. Then, a few hours later three of the four were back into the enclosure and there was no sign of the fourth one.
Coyotes and fox have their pups and kits to feed. My fault for not addressing the Great Duck Escape.
I thought purple leaves were due to a nutrient deficiency. I’ve had it once or twice but you’d have to confirm your situation and fertilizer. I think it’s either a magnesium deficiency or or phosphorus.
