I have over 2000 seeds that I collected in 2015. I have 6 trays (72 holes) that will hold a total of 432 plants. I plan to begin some in a few weeks. I'm going to get just two trays started first and see how it goes. If all goes smoothly, I will probably start two more trays a few weeks after that, etc. This is my first year doing this. Mid December I tested five seeds just to see how things progress. All five germinated. Two within 4 days and the other three by day 10. Planted them in a 4" pot and am keeping them under an Ott-light that I have for reading. Two of the five really shot up fast, the other three were slower to germinate and grow leaves. One them has already died off. It seemed to dry up...maybe. It's so hard to tell if I'm under watering or over watering. The other two of the three slow ones look questionable. The two that shot up still look really good and have three leaves each. Makes me a little nervous to get started full force. Oh well, I guess I have enough seeds. I'll just keep going until I have all healthy ones. Wish me luck.
