Thanks, Emily.
That's my biggest challenge in seed starting- knowing when to start. One year I started tomatoes so early that I fed the first ones to the compost and started over. This year, I already started a small tray of begonias, probably too early. Now I'm debating when to do impatiens. I did a few last year, started too late, and they were pretty small when I planted them out. If I could get the start date right my life would be a lot easier! When do you seed impatiens? Stokes says Jan. 25th - Mar. 15th., and that's a pretty wide window. I'm thinking mid February.
This is probably one of the reasons I like wintersowing so much- once I stick those jugs outside, it's in Mother Nature's hands to decide when they should sprout.
