Only the 1330.5 and the 845 have become seedlings (the youngest and the oldest), so those will be the two that go into the patch. I will be moving them up to the 12" pots today and begin the process of hardening off to hopefully be planted out this upcoming weekend. Wednesday, May 5 View Page Phooey!!!!!
