Jeff...wow...what exciting streaked seedlings. Do you have any a few years older that you are proud of that you could show us? Susan...I have sown seed in the house at this time of year. I put the seed in a container of moist sterile seedling starting mix, cover with clear-wrap and put on top of the kitchen cupboards where it is warmer. Some germinate within a few days. After they germinate I leave the clear wraps on a few more days and remove. I bottom water with very week fertilizer.
