Looking great! I also really like your idea of putting an onion into shallow water to harvest the greens; I do that too.

I didn't label them. At this point I have no clue which is which.

Haha I can't count how often I've made the same mistake. I have a mystery tray in the mini greenhouse, and I see it's some sort of brassica germinating, but what? Cauliflower? Kohlrabi? Cabbage? What? I guess I'll see when it grows up.

You can tell early on, even with the first two leaves spinach and kale grow, the cotyledon, or "embryonic leaves". Spinach will grow two narrow, lancet-like leaves with a pointy tip. Kale will sprout two leaves that are sort of heart-shaped. If you're in doubt, please take a close-up and I'll probably be able to identify them if you want to label them.
