Explanation:
Nas referências que encontrei, parece ser usada como sinônimo de "seedlings".

[Houston is under water, my seedlets are drowned and I'm sick (again)...
We've had a ton of rain over the last couple of days. Some parts of Houston got 11 inches last night, we got about 4 but it was torrential. We had just transplanted the squash, zucchini, eggplant and half the peppers Sunday because it wasn't supposed to be this bad.]

Comentário: se eles tinham acabado de transplantar as "seedlets", elas não eram mais sementes, já tinham germinado.
