Don't forget I have greenhouses, Rick. I would guess that it takes 1-2 weeks for most to germinate and then I let them grow in their plug-trays for an average of a month. I then will transplant the majority to 2-3" pots or larger plug trays (larger compartments, not trays). I sell many of my plants and some will go into the raised garden in March/April. Those that will be sold will ultimately be growing in 1 gal. pots. I will thus move the plants from those 2-3" pots to 4-5" ones and then into gal. pots.
