48 hours in the life of a sprout

Day Six
arrrrugula.

yesterday evening when the arugula sprouted, i had no idea it would continue to grow so quickly! here is a picture of it from this morning around 8am...

early sprouts
lots of sprouts!
and that elevated center portion? that is the spot where the seedlings are forcing the soil up so they can get out. cool, huh?

evening sprouts
this was what i came home to this evening around 8:30pm. way beyond what i imagined would be welcoming me!!

yumyumyum.
can't wait to eat these! must be patient!
