Hi, Emily, so good to see you! I'd wondered where you were, now that seed starting season is upon us.

Yes, I found bradsbegoniaworld, too, when googling.

I started one APS-12 unit of begonias about a month ago. Just 6 cells of "Illumination" type and 6 cells of fibrous "Bada Bing". They sprouted in 10-12 days with bottom heat. I guess they're doing OK, but barely growing. They do stay pretty wet in that APS. I guess I'll transfer them to regular cells when they're a little bigger.

I'm going to try one more APS-12 of "big red" begonia, maybe today. It's a dreary, snowy, cold day here. I don't plan to leave the house, so maybe I'll just play in the dirt. As of now, I haven't done anything. Dreary weather makes me dreary, too. It saps my energy. I'm just glad I don't have to work today. It's snowing like crazy. Traffic is awful.

Karen
