My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
Has anyone had any luck starting these from seed? I about to go for my 3rd.try... under light on a heat mat this time. Hoping the "3rd times a charm" works for me....and I'm running out of seeds.
I have never tried them personally, but I can try and help. What are you using as a starting mix? The seed is pretty small I think, so a mix of sand and compost/topsoil will probably work best, spread over a shallow container. Keep the soil evenly moist, but not soaked, and cover the top(don't wrap the whole container up in the plastic, the soil needs to breathe) with a sheet of clear plastic, like a gallon size freezer bag, to keep humidity up. Air temps should be in the 70's and away from any drafts.
Like i said, I don't have experience with these seeds in particular, but this has worked for just about everything i have tried in the past. Good Luck! Sarah
It is far too cold and dark to start these seeds now.Wait until mid March in your zone.Don't cover the seeds too much,and make sure they are kept moist and in a very bright location.Good Luck!
Well...I screwed up. I really didn't think I'd have any luck because the seeds are 3 yrs old so I sewed them under light on heat mat on the 28th and now they're coming up like gangbusters. Hope I can hold them over inside until warmer weather or at least to get them to bloom under light so I can collect seeds.
Read AFTER I sewed them,they are heat lovers which would explain why I never had any luck WS.
