I may do petunia seeds the way I did a few other seeds last year. Course I neglected to track whether my bright idea was so bright Rolling my eyes.

Last year, I filled some cells with about 3/4 PromixBX and topped with 1/4 seed starter mix (which is so much finer and lighter). My reasoning being the tiny seeds come up in the finer mix easier, but then would have the heavier mix to root into. The intention was to be able to leave them in the 6 packs longer. Seemed they had to be transplanted from starter mix to Promix at some point. I was trying to buy time and in some cases eliminate doing that step all together...Does that make ANY sense?...Anybody have thoughts/comments?
