Here are all the seeds nestled in their new growing peat pots in our germination box. This is the same one we have used the past few years. We look for 85 degrees in the box. We use a couple light bulbs for heat. The season is definitely under way now. The seeds had an 8 hour soak on them before they we planted in the soil. They had about half an inch of dirt covering the seed. This method has worked well for us in the past. Hopefully all 6 will come up. We always figure one will not germinate for one reason or another. 3 will go in the dirt so we will have a few backups. These babies should sprout in the next couple of days.
