Alice,
....So sorry to hear of your losses my friend, but look on the bright side. Ya dint get bored this winter didja ? Neither did I. Went overboard here number wise also. Found out that small seedlings 'croak' when the trays are put in the cold frame too early.

.......Speaking of 'early', in the future I will not start ANY seeds until February , unless there is a special one like the Cardboard Sago Palm seeds I just got =)

......The brug seeds I sowed in Oct & Nov basically failed . Germination rates were almost 100% but the growth was so poor I tossed them. The brug seeds I sowed in Feb are flourishing. There is a lot to be said about the growing season I guess. Unless you have a commercial GH set -up . HAH !

.........Winter sowing (Feb) went great, even the tomatoes. They are shorter but such nice dark green stocky healthy plants compared to the March seeds started indoors.

(((Nice to see you again )))
