What about tender seeds, non-semi-hardy like lobelia? Can you winter sow those? Also, I made up a mixture of 1:9 water and hydrogen peroxide to spray my little sprouts with to prevent damp off. Read that somewhere. Anyone know how much to spray. Like two spritzes -- repeat how often?? if repeats needed?

Lots of really great ideas on this thread. I use a rolling greenhouse for my containers but then I have to water as soon as the snow decides to look like it might leave this year -- sometime -- before July....sigh. I have them in there because they got rolled by the wind last year. But I guess I do need to get them some moisture. It is snowing again so maybe I can just set them out in the snow and let them accumulate a snow cap, then back in the greenhouse.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
