Growing from Seed

started sowing

Well I started sowing seeds the last couple weeks. I know it's early but one advantage I have is a small heated Gh I can put my plants in sometime around March. I have 2 shelf units with lights that allows me to start 36 flats of seeds. Right now I have potted up 75 geraniums and 60 Impatiens. I have other seeds growing but not ready to pot up.

I wish you lots of good luck. ;) We too have a greenhouse but don't begin seeding until mid-January and only then some of the slow germinating flowers. Most seeding here waits till late February and early March.

Last year I started on New years day and when planting time came I had blooms on some of the flowers which did well all summer
