Since it is now March and we are only weeks away from seed starting; what is everyone's plan to grow? I realize this may have changed since last discussion :)

I think I am going to try to germ a 993. Tried last year and failed as well. But I was thankful for that because then I grew my own seed and it was a beauty :)

If I can get the patch prep done these will be the chosen few:

1495 stelts
