Have you started the WS project?
Last fall, somehow I got up to 26 milk jugs on the go.
Mostly things which need stratification.
Caroline zone 3 Calgary
Canadians winter sowing yet???
I usually do a few jugs in March. I think I will cut back in the number this year as well.
I can always fit another jug outdoors, but my indoor space is limited.
I brought Geraniums in and I have started cuttings so I am slowly filling the south windows once again.
Going to start some under lights too. (begonia seeds first).
I'll probably start in late February. And I am going to cut back the number of jugs for sure - I don't have any room to grow everything. LOL.
I only did 30 last year, and that was still too many. I'm going to aim for 20 this year. Well, we shall see if I stick to 20 - my seed box is absolutely jam-packed - I could still get carried away.

Ha! It will be fun to see who can actually cut back! That is like trying to quit smoking or something!
Extra seedlings can always go to the Calgary Hort Plant Swap in May.
I try to put fewer seeds in each jug so I don't have too many extras---but----but----
it is hard to curtail habits even when they are good ones.
I winter sowed some 'Earl Grey' Larkspur a couple weeks ago. I'll be doing a bunch more containers once I get some more dirt.
I did Earl Grey a few years ago.
Interesting plant as the flowers are grey.
I always wanted to try it with Delphinium zalil. The grey and pale yellow might look neat together.
I have a few zalil seedlings on the go.
This is first I have tried.
How does it grow and how hardy is it?
Not sure.........my seedlings died. How did you start your seeds? I may try again.
Chilled seeds in frig for several weeks on moist paper towels then out to room temp.
When sprouted they were transplanted to soil and into south window.
They are struggling as there is not really strong light yet.
Thats what I did except it was warm enough for them to go outside and they croaked. I think mine got a bit waterlogged though.
