drdawg said:We are sort of two peas in a pod, David. If you took a look at my website, you would see a bit of similarity between the two of us. I was never exposed to agriculture of any sort growing up. I had to learn what I know about growing plants after 1970, when I was in my late 20's.

I got that impression Ken following your posts and looking over your site (Will likely purchase one of your Celadines next spring BTW). And hey - we both wanted to try Plumeria from seeds. Heh - You are a couple years ahead of me there. I am gonna start mine in Jan or Feb.

While we moved off the farm when I was 9, I worked on farms every summer til I was 21. Mostly gave me an appreciation of nature and growing things.

Me too - I really got in to plants ~ 1975. Aside from some years when I traveled heavily as a consultant and was NEVER home, I have personally gardened for most of the past 40 years. Particularly after 1985 when I met my kindred spirit wife. In late November of that year we planted ~ 1,000 tulips. I drove a metal rod into the frozen ground and she dropped in bonemeal and the bulbs.

I think my set up will do well to get the plumeria seeds started. I do hope the OP is being helped - I think there is some good info in this thread.
