My radishes have germinated. Little green shoots about half an inch tall, lots of tiny green leaves. About what to expect after 5 days. I've started adding saccharin to the group on the right. I put some in water and used it to water them, but then I thought I didn't use enough, so I also sprinkled some on the soil. Not terribly scientific, but the goal here is just to see if this works.
