    Ta Sjoerd :)

    Here's a few I've got in root trainers, except for the round pot on the left, those are White Lisbon Spring Onions which hopefully I'll be picking for Chef soon :)

    I got my Wooly Kate and chocolate tomatoe seeds planted and on heat mats under the grow lights this morning. I planted three of each but at least one of each will go to my gardening friend. I also started 5 pots of yellow marigolds called "Sugar and Spice"'.

    a couple Cactus dahlia seeds have come up, all my cabbage seeds are up and one english daisy. I always have difficulty germinating Pepper plants. I don't know why, though. :shrug:

    Probably doesn't say that but it sometimes gives them a head start. I tried it with my ex wife just before we got divorced :)
