I can not grow plants from seeds. Never could and just this year we have a thread where several of us took seeds from my three sweetshrubs and we all planted them .....we keep in touch and I am going to save the information in the event someone wants to know our methods. Those seeds are tricky and we had a heck of a time. It was fun and now I need to transplant the few that actually are growing for me. I need to go check it out. It is in the Seed forum of ATP.....as for other seeds, I have tried over and over to grow herbs( grew some of them but did not know what to do with them after I grew them), and annuals. No luck with flowers at all. I always over water them. I even purchased one of those self water seed starters and my seeds still died. Not a good thing.
