Took the plunge last night - January 12- planting seeds in cells, covering them with plastic and now the wait to germinate begins! I hope to plant out starting mid March. This is only my second time to plants from seed, so this is still experimental time wise. I know last time, under grow lights in a cool garage the growth from sprout to transplant was very slow (2 months for smallish transplants). This year I'm adding heated floor mats to the mix and hope this will increase the sprout to transplant growth time line. Plus with the extreme cold this winter, the garage would be too darn cold without a heat source other than lights. I also went nuts and bought water walls to see what that does for me in March, which often ranges from cold to warm.
