This weekend I helped my DD winter sow for the first time. I've never done it before, but I do 'spring sow' as soon as we re-open the house at the end of March. It's not early enough for the tougher perennials but works really well on lots of things. We used plastic sweater boxes, made the holes with a soldering iron. We filled Solo cups 4" with pro mix, covered the bigger seeds with 1/4" of soil and the small ones with a sprinkling of vermiculite. The soil was moistened with 10:1 water: peroxide with a drop or two of Superthrive.
