Gentian Verna Seedlings

Good evening,

I have succesfully brought on some of these from seed.
The seedlings are incredibly small and very, very slow growing.
I am not sure what to do with them, they are far too small to pot on with one thin root a cm long.
Should I just leave them in their original seed tray and be very patient or do something else?
Thanks

    Not sure what to advise as we have only had small plants that we have brought in.
    But as they are seedlings for verna again not sure that they will produce anything this year apart from you growing them on.
    Leaving them in the seed tray for a while is probably the best thing and when they are getting to be a size that you can easily prick out into different pots.
    Best of luck as they are worthwhile.

    Thanks for that.
    I love them as plants and was really pleased when they came through.
    I will take your advice and just learn to be patient, they are quite close together in their tray but will just have to accept it this way.
