Teresa....Parks Seed sponges. I have used them for years and have had superior results.
For the first time this year, because I got antsy and didnt wait for my sponges to arrive, I planted in small dixie cups with seed starting mix... FOGET IT. I am glad as can be that everyone seems to have great luck with such things, but I dont. After three wasted weeks, and now past when things will bloom in the spring, Ive got about 5 of 40 seeds up. I usually get almost 100% germination in the sponges. Well....I got myself on the LA and boght some more seeds...ordered the sponges, planted last week, and within days, sure enough the seeds are germinating.
I dont care if people make fun of me for using the sponges ( Leslie Blinking nodding ), life is too short. Its sponges for me for another good long while.
