  Var 1 is lacking behind.

  Var 2 is only 2-3 seeds germinated. (Maybe compost unfinished ?)
  

  Var 3 4 and 5 are doing good. 

  Var 6 is doing good but also very leggy seedlings (maybe differnet light conditions - windowsill)
  

  Var 7 lacking behind (as Var1)

• First leaves - Day 8 - 10.04.2022

  First leaves on the seedlings get established.

  Also the first differences between the soils get apparend.

  The soils where the seeds got deeper into moist depth get better germination. (Var 4 & Var 5)
  

  The soilvariant 2 is not germinating.

• Germination - Day 5 - 08.04.2022

  The initial seeding of garden cress on 03. April 2022:

  The soil samples where mixed in 7 variations from the following ingredients:

  1.  Municipal compost from a local treatment plan (thermophilic compost - short and hot composting)
  2. Garden compost from our household (mostly kitchen and garden scraps - 1year matured)
  3. Coco fibers
  4. sugar beet flakes (dried) - sourced locally - protein source
  5. MgSO4 - Bitter Salt
  6. Activated Charcoal
  7. Perlite pellets (local vulcanic stone - crushed
