I'm anything but eloquent. And I don't even know what an Ebucket is.

Gymgirl, I, and many WS veterans, transplant right from jug to garden. I sow perennials and hardy annuals in winter, and plant out whenever soil is thawed up here and I can tolerate the temps myself. Anytime, even months before last for for HAs and HPs.

I don't even sow more tender things, including toms, until late March or April. I don't plant them out till after last frost, around mid May in my zone.

Last year I did my toms inside (COLD WEATHER YEAR!) but have WS toms successfully.

For any tiny flower seeds, I just sprinkle them and they grow like Chia Pets. I dump them out, cut into chunks, and plant out the hunks without separating, thinning, or potting up.
