This time I made a tray of the normal 360 3/4" sugar cube soil blockers and an additional starter tray of 2" for the larger seeds that I have this time round. This is going to strain my little seed warmer because the two trays are larger, but I am placing them both in the
Also I replanted some varieties from the earlier seed starts due to low germination rates. In the case of Feverfew, none! I know Feverfew requires light germination, but my cold frames get plenty of sun. I only managed get one Anise Hyysop to germinate out of 28, but then when I looked in my sand and seed stratification bag I had set aside, I found that most of the seeds had germinated in the plastic bag which makes the seed starting easier, I'd say. Napa cabbage germinated great, but I replanted because I just wanted MORE.

Squash Waltham Butternut (Grow Organic)
