I want to do seedling beds eventually. I know they take great record keeping, so I'm focusing on just blooms for now.

Q's:1. Should I plant seeds immediately or the same year the pod produces? I hear they can last some years before germination and planting.

2. I researched vaguely and saw a great discription on naming seedlings. I knew there was something to all those numbers. Can anyone break it down to "dummies" terms?

3. How much space does a seedling need? They should remain in place for years upon devolping leaves right? Won't the process of elimination in time do this for me.

If it saves time, post a article link if you'd like and will read and memorize it.I'm just trying to learn from you all and fully be educated without.

Let me know if I ask too much stuff also. I do look this stuff up, but Google doesn't have "everything" Blinking
Gimme it and I'll grow it!
