Funny how that work's, right?
LOL yeah.. with my limited space, I originally told myself "okay, only 3 or 4 varieties this year, but maybe 1 or 2 plants of each. Don't overdo it"

.. cut to lastnight, with me prepping seed for 10 varieties, and then once I realized I had 3 cells unused, grabbing an 11th.. Now my seed is pretty old, on average, but I'm pretty sure with the numbers I sowed, I'll have at least 2 or 3 plants come up per variety, on average. Somehow, I went from 5-7 plants to potentially 20-30. I think I'll be giving away a bunch of plants.. or at least I hope I will.

With over 300 varieties in my stash to choose from, it almost becomes paralyzing trying to figure out what to put in my very small list each season.
