Thanks to all. It was too late for the seeds, all I found were empty moldy shells that crumbled the moment I touched them.

I refrigerate most of the seeds, I don't know why I was so on a planting frenzy. But the biggest problem was the potting mix. It's too wet and it says wet. I have a small seedling in the same mix and I can see it's suffering from wet. It's so small I don't know what to do, if giving t a new pot whith fresh potting mix or not.

It's the second time that a bagged potting mix is already affected with damping off.

I agree, its' hard to grow new seedlings inside. I have a small portable greenhouse that I will use when colder days will arrive.
The second problem is that sun in winter doesn't shine on the garden.
The past year I tried with grow lights in the basement but the room is closed, no air circulation and I had problems with those little flying things that place eggs in the pot and eat roots Hilarious! I can't remember the name and I'm too lazy to open another browser window Hilarious!

The good thing is that I can make the same cross the next spring because the plants are still there, but I've been such a stupid. 20 seeds and not keeping a back up is an idiot thing!!
Thanks to all!
