Almost time to transplant

Hello again. Sorry it's been a while again...busy time of the semester. Things just continue to sprout, and now I've got Gaillardia that's nearly ready to be separated and put in 3" peat pots. I'm going to try to split the multiple seedlings instead of killing off the weakling, since I feel that's just wasteful. Hopefully I won't end up killing all of them. :) So here are a few pictures of the progress lately:
Also, the Mediterranean vinca have really taken off:
A few days ago, I planted some tomatoes along with some other flowers. My mom gave me this container...it came with a soiless grow mix already in it. Here's what their setup looks like:
All in all, I'm pleased with the progress. A lot of the stuff I've planted (e.g., Dichondra) has had a 100% germination rate. The petunias (especially red) were a bit of a disappointment, but I really didn't expect much with them (and so far have 3-4/12).

Alright, that's it for tonight. I'll leave with a picture of my new blooms on my African Violet. :)
Goodnight. :)
