I forgot to mark my starter pots!! i know its either bell pepper or cucumber buts that's it. i planted it two weeks ago

It is a cuke. Pepper plants start with long, skinny cotyledon. Most of the squash/melon family have larger, oval first leaves.

I've been known to forget what seeds I sowed where in the veggie garden. Then a week or 2 later I'll go nuts trying to identify the seedlings

I am glad that I am not the only one!! this year I was very careful to mark everything with spoons written on them and cute copper markers my son bought me. then it rained and everything was blank!!

You are all better at this I.D. stuff. I sometimes can't tell until they bloom and/or set fruit!

I am going nutz wondering which of the 4 potato varieties is which! I measured again today and the tallest plants are 38". The runts must be more than 20" now but I don't know what any of these are!

My guess is that I won't be disappointed in 3 and, maybe all 4. My guess is also that the above-ground image of each will be burned into my brain because I find it so frustrating that I've buried the plant markers in mulch.

I was scratching around again yesterday but couldn't find a one! They'll turn up. Every shovelful of soil will be removed from the bed during my spud harvesting. Of course, I will know the varieties by the look of the tubers. A few feet each week ... 3 weeks. And, digging won't even begin for about that long!

Shoot.
