Well, starting over again no thanks to my cat. Had half my potted seeds already up and happily growing until she knocked the whole thing over.

Same here. Wish I had a cat to blame.

Over the last week I lost 50 tomato seedlings to damping off. They were two inches high when they collapsed. Usually, that's a self inflicted mortal wound.

Not quite sure what I did. I've seeded the media in the identical fashion for the last five years. Maybe the trays and cells were not clean enough.

So, I'll clean everything with a bleach solution and try again. Oddly, none of the pepper varieties were affected.

Fortunately for me, there's plenty of time left.

So, I'll clean everything with a bleach solution and try again.

It's a PITA, but I bleach everything every year. Hot soak, 10% bleach/warm water soak, lukewarm soak. Never a problem.

I hate that you lost that many seedlings. If you ever figure out why the peppers were immune, please let us know. Best wishes on re-starting your seeds :)
