Well there is alot of pleasure in growing out some of the wonderful crosses available. . but unfortunately not everything is viable.. pealing..soaking... planting... and there will be things that don't sprout out... water the little pots and trays for weeks on end... months...and still nothing... Oh ..well... but I've found it's not over yet... I take the trays and pots of seeds... and place them in a big saucer.. with holes in the bottom... and arrange the soil with name tags and place a bit of the plastic blind strips I use for name tags and out line the divisions between types.. and place the saucer under a container drip so they are always watered when the containers are watered.. and forget about them..but check back.. this saves space in the sprouting area for new trys.. and gives everything an additional few months to finally figure out about sprouting.. I'm always rewarded with a few late or slow ones.. and it's easy to give them the time extention.. so find a way to give them a bit more time.. Gordon
