A Little Light

The sweet pea and fava beans that we planted indoors two weeks ago are ready to go outside and start the hardening process. They will spend their days outdoors and their nights inside with the heat off.

While this is exciting, I am a bit worried about the fava beans. They have grown tall and skinny, many of them are falling over and when I looked in to this, I found that the most likely culprit is too little light. I'm hoping that their time outside in direct sunlight will help them; but just in case, I've bought more seeds to sow on Wednesday.
