flores in fiber

I also have potted up the flower seedlings into fiber pots
Marigolds:
and Cosmos:
Something about the new materials I'm using this year-the compressed fiber pots and seed-starter mix I assume- makes the inside of my coldframe smell like a greenhouse. It makes me feel like I'm moving up, doing something right, because I got the official smell of growing plants!

I used these little fiber pots too this year and I love them :D They just soak up moisture really quick I noticed so you have to stay on top of the watering.

Yeah it rained on them, and they got all soggy. I'm worried they'll fall apart if the weather doesn't dry up soon! (There's way too many to bring inside the house, and the coldframe doesn't keep them dry enough- bottoms still get wet)
