Flat Leaf Parsley Planted Under a Board

I planted about 20 flat leaf parsley seeds under an 8 inch long 2X4. Parsley seeds are very slow to germinate. Keep them moist and have a little patience. I then slowly thinned them to these two
I then transplanted them with a bulb planter. They don't like to be transplanted but this method works quite well.

And here they are.

Bulb Planter

I use a bulb planter to move or transplant small plants like cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes, dill, ground cherries, lettuce, beans, etc. You have to have the kind with an adjustable release.

First squeeze the handle till the blades open a little bit.

Then center the selected plant in the opening and push down about 3 inches and release. Make one half turn and pull out your plant.

Place the plant in a previously dug hole.

Bury the whole thing. Then squeeze the bulb planter all the way out and gently remove it from the soil.

Add a little water and cover. Practice makes perfect.

Cabbage

Four cabbage plants started under a board. A lot more to come.
