Grow 3 - Cube Test Results Day 4

The results are in, and it appears that the Rapid Rooters are leading the pack.  They were the first to show signs of germination (Romaine Lettuce) after 3 days.  The seed packet indicated a 5-10 day germination cycle on these seeds.  Wow.

The Romaine is in the far left column.  Four out of five seeds germinated so far.  Second column (from left) has Basil in the top three cubes (going down) and the last two are Roma tomatoes, the far right column - my dreaded spinach.

The STG cubes are getting smoked so far with only two Romaine seeds germinating in the bottom two cubes of the first column.

We can see the beginning of other seeds germinating (as of today) but nothing confirmed as of this posting.  As of now, STG is dead last in this three horse race.

The Rockwool cubes are running in second after four days.  We have progress on the Romaine as we did in the Rapid Rooters, however, the activity didn't show until late yesterday and early this morning.

As you can see, we have fewer seeds that germinated (only bottom three in first column) and no signs in any of the other Rockwool cubes.  The tray with all the cubes shows the three in comparison.  All seeds are planted in the same order as to number of cubes per type of plant and layout in the tray.
